This occurred on MonoDroid Preview 13

I added a web service proxy from within Visual Studio 2010 to a Monotouch Class
library project, which generated the SOAP proxies and added several references.
 One of these (un-needed) references was to System.EnterpriseServices, v 4.0.

After doing this, when I tried to build, I got an error indicating a problem
with the assets directory:

Removing the reference in the service proxy project resolved the problem.


Reproducible: Didn't try

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Add a web service proxy to a MD class library.
2. Note the additional referenceto System.EnterpriseServices
3. Attempt to build an applicationa/activity linked to this class library
Actual Results:  
Fails to build, misleading message

Expected Results:  
That the dll linked to the wrong assembly would fail to build (rather than
succeeding itself), a message indicating the error.
