Mono xbuild uses dmcs instead of gmcs

Question

I have the following code:

using System;
using Microsoft.Build.Framework;
using Microsoft.Build.Utilities;

namespace MyTasks
{
    public class SimpleTask : Task
    {
            public override bool Execute()
            {
                    return true;
            }
    }
}

I have the following MSBuild script:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<Project ToolsVersion="4.0" DefaultTargets="Build" xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/developer/msbuild/2003">
   <Target Name="Build">
      <MakeDir Directories= "bin"/>
      <Csc Sources="SimpleTask.cs" References="Microsoft.Build.Utilities,Microsoft.Build.Framework"      TargetType="library"
           OutputAssembly=".\bin\SimpleTask.dll" />
   </Target>
</Project>

It fails with the following message:

Xbuild calls the dmcs compiler but the Microsoft.Build.Utilites assembly has references to .net 2.0 assemblies. When I compile by hand with gmcs (2.0) it works. But I can't get it working with xbuild.

在Project xml标记中将Toolsversion设置为2.0。
