We are doing the same, and indeed found some weird dependency issues
related to Mono.Posix.

One workaround we have found is, before deployment, to recompile on
Windows. The resulting .exe works fine on all platforms, runs with
.NET too, and doesn't have the issue with the Mono.Posix.

Hope that helps,
