Just out of curiosity, what symbols are conflicting?

Most of Mono follows the Gnome/Gtk style guidelines of prefixing each
function with the library it belongs in, hence all the "mono_" prefixed
functions, though there are some "mini_" prefixed functions.  Unless
Cocoa has a "mono" or "mini" construct somewhere, where would the
conflicts be from?

The one exception I can think of to this is the IO layer, which uses
Win32 symbol names.  Previously, this caused conflicts with Wine, but I
think we changed the linker so that Mono's Win32 symbols were internal. 
(I could be wrong, though.)
