Thanks, but a) they're all there and b) the strace suggests we're not
getting that far, in that 'etc/beagle' appears nowhere in the trace
output. . .

There are a number of pairs of lines along these lines:
  open("/amd/nfs/hippocampus/disk/ptn057/projects/lcontrib/etc/mono/assemblies/mscorlib/mscorlib.config", O_RDONLY|O_LARGEFILE) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)
  open("/home/ht/.mono/assemblies/mscorlib/mscorlib.config", O_RDONLY|O_LARGEFILE) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)
but I don't see any assemblies subdir in old vanilla mono
installations, so I don't think that's an issue. . .

Thanks anyway,
