OK, thanks. I've deployed libMonoPosixHelper.so to the test box. I now 
have the executable file and .so file in the same directory. It only 
works if I add the directory to the LD_LIBRARY_PATH - I can probably 
work around this, but is there a better way to configure it? Can the 
current directory be added to the rpath, or something?

Thanks to Alexander as well, --deps appears to work OK if I list the 
application-specific DLLs on the command line (Mono deps are pulled in 
automatically). I'm not sure why this is, but it works well enough for me.
