I'm running mono 2.6.1 as well. I just downloaded mobj from the web site executed `make` and it built fine.

This is a little weird: it should have generated keys and built mobjc.dll before trying to build the tests.dll. I would try doing a `make distclean` and then `make` since you have re-installed mono.

I've never seen this and am not sure what to tell you if it persists, but it sounds like you were able to build the mobjc.dll at least once so maybe the problem is with nunit.
