I don't think there is current support for VB compilation.

You have that capability right now. Unless you are intending to use Linux- or Windows-specific APIs (perhaps Windows.Forms?), there is no need either for a Mono VB compiler, nor a port process, to run your applications on Linux. (If you are using OS specific APIs, no VB compiler will help you anyway.) That's a key benefit of .Net: your Windows VB apps compile down to CIL (using MS compiler), just like C# does, which can run under Mono on linux, as is.
