Thanks, Rafael.

As I already said in the first post I'm using an utility 
for installation of near 15 assemblies at once.
It creates a gacutil process and passes parameters.
I'm not going to do this by hand on the destination user machine. :)

And here my remarks:
1. Standard specifies that String.EndsWith performs a case-sensitive search.
Therefore assembly with the name
 assm.DLL won't work, or if an assembly without a .dll extension too.
2. The solution as I see is to 
- remove slash and leave only '-'(not a reliable one if again a relative
path starts from the '-')
- or add a special option (e.g. '-a' or '/a' indicating absolute path
specificator)
