Two projects demonstrating the difference

Description of Problem:

The documents folder retrieved in Cocoa does not match the folder returned by
Environment.GetFolderPath(Environment.SpecialFolders.MyDocuments) points to a
different path than NSSearchPathForDirectoriesInDomains(NSDocumentDirectory,
NSUserDomainMask, YES)).

This is important because the "Documents" folder is some how (magically)
preserved between Simulation executions while none of the other folders are.
It's the place where the app is supposed to write its preserved data.

Steps to reproduce the problem:
1. Compile Xcode project - note path
2. Compile Mono project - note path


Actual Results:

Xcode
====
/Users/fak/Library/Application Support/iPhone
Simulator/User/Applications/4181F9C2-1102-48D7-BB5E-349770A1E787/Documents/hello

MonoTouch
====
/Users/fak/Library/Application Support/iPhone
Simulator/User/Applications/BE47D555-33E7-4964-8ED1-B4CACDDB499D/hello
! Couldn't read

Expected Results:

-- You get the idea

How often does this happen?
