After staring at the configure.in.in for a while, I came up with the idea of 
trying to look at what it's looking at, so I hacked up a bit of bash:


GNOME_LIST="libgnomecanvas-2.0 libgnomeui-2.0 gtk+-2.0 libgnomeprintui-2.2 
gmodule-2.0 libpanelapplet-2.0"
echo "gnome-sharp"
for p in $GNOME_LIST; do echo -n "$p=>"; pkg-config --modversion $p; done

echo "rsvg-sharp"
pkg-config --modversion librsvg-2.0

echo "vte-sharp"
pkg-config --modversion vte

That (and grep) lead me to look at the bootstrap files:

##############################
./bootstrap
#!/bin/sh
# Run this to set configure.in up for an API version.

GTK_SHARP_VERSION=2.5.90
ASSEMBLY_VERSION=2.6.0.0
GTK_REQUIRED_VERSION=2.6.0
GNOME_REQUIRED_VERSION=2.10.0
VERSIONCSDEFINES=-define:GTK_SHARP_2_6
VERSIONCFLAGS=-DGTK_SHARP_2_6
GTK_API_TAG=2.6
GNOME_API_TAG=2.10

. ./bootstrap-generic "$@"


##########################################
./bootstrap-2,4

#!/bin/sh
# Run this to set configure.in up for an API version.

GTK_SHARP_VERSION=2.3.90
ASSEMBLY_VERSION=2.4.0.0
GTK_REQUIRED_VERSION=2.4.0
GNOME_REQUIRED_VERSION=2.6.0
VERSIONCSDEFINES=
VERSIONCFLAGS=
GTK_API_TAG=2.4
GNOME_API_TAG=2.6

. ./bootstrap-generic "$@"

It would appear you were given some bad info at some point, or things have 
changed.
