Your example runs fine on an xscale system -- I'll update my openmoko
device and try that.

root at cm-x270:~$ gmcs test.cs
root at cm-x270:~$ mono test.exe
Hello World!
root at cm-x270:~$

gmcs is a shell script:

root at cm-x270:~$ more /usr/bin/gmcs
#!/bin/sh
exec /usr/bin/mono $MONO_OPTIONS /usr/lib/mono/2.0/gmcs.exe "$@"

Its likely you have something wrong with shell scripts on your system.
 Try running mono directory as in the above script.
