I've done this, 
http://lists.ximian.com/pipermail/mono-devel-list/2006-January/016768.html 
. The devkit template is almost a year old now, so I'm not sure if it 
works out of the box. If I have time I'll update it to most recent 
scratchbox. But making a mono-devkit is definitely possible, and I was 
able to compile Gtk# and other C# programs just fine.
