[Mono-list] msvcr70.dll DllNotFoundException on Linux

[Kornél Pál]

Hi,

msvcr70.dll is a native Windows DLL. Mono is only able to use native 
libraries of the host platform.

If you want full compatibility you can try the Windows version of Mono 
under Wine.

Otherwise you should aviod using msvcr70.dll or at least don't use 
functions not supported by libstdc.
