Why don't you simply install it using graphical installer? I had a few
versions installed this way, the only thing you'll need to do is to add a
few variables (in a file, e. g. ~/local/mono12) instead of what the
installer adds to bash_profile:

export MOZILLA_FIVE_HOME="/usr/lib/firefox"
export PATH="/home/joe/local/mono-1.2/bin:$PATH"

export PKG_CONFIG_PATH="/home/joe/local/mono-1.2/lib/pkgconfig:$PKG_CONFIG_PATH"
export MANPATH="/home/joe/local/mono-1.2/share/man:$MANPATH"

export LD_LIBRARY_PATH="/home/joe/local/mono-1.2/lib:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH"
export MONO_THEME=clearlooks

. ~/local/mono12

then

mono myapp.exe, Monodevelop works too.

I had one problem with this. Some libraries are in different
versions/have different names and when using for example winforms
fileselector, it crashes. I had to link a few libraries which were 
"missing":

Last time i checked these libs needed to be symlinked:

libgdk-x11-2.0.so
libglib-2.0.so.0.1000.3 
libglib-2.0.so
libgobject-2.0.so
libgobject-2.0.so.0.1000.3

Cheers,
W.

PS. I've 6.06 not 6.10, but it shouldn't be a problem.
