Are you sure that the dlls aren't obfuscated, if they are they won't be, easily at least, usable with Mono, as obfuscators damage intentionally the dlls to a point that .NET (or just some versions of it) still accept them, but which is way out of the standard specs for Mono to deal reliably with.
Just a guess. If this is the case and you really want to work with them, you can open a case at mono's bugzilla with the details, or compile with csc and try to run the resulting binaries in mono (but it may also fail loading in mono for execution).
