Could you try trunk?  We believe we have fixed this bug now.

Regarding packaging: are you running `mono' as a process, or you are
embedding the library?  In the later case, you could just ship the
library, call the mono_set_root (I forget the exact name) and the
libraries that you need.

Alternatively, we could make Mono relocatable (I have a patch that we
can try).
