---- Reported by robertj@gmx.net 2005-10-23 20:08:03 MST ----

Under Cygwin, the mono root dir is computed from the current
executable file name (see os/win32/util.c: mono_set_rootdir ()).

This doesn't work, if the executable is not in Mono's bin dir, as
it happens to libmono embedders.

The patch enables embedders to call mono_assembly_setrootdir ()
before creating the first app domain.

W/out the patch, mono_assembly_setrootdir's work will be
overwritten by mono_set_rootdir ().

An alternative patch has been checked in, it should do what you want
now (and also makes Mono relocatable on Linux/Solaris)
