[Mono-dev] Mono Develop native menus on Mac OS X

[Alan McGovern]

Hey,

That can be fixed by using a dllmap to reroute the native library to the
correct one for macos. If you can create a patch to update the dllmap to
pick up the correct libraries on MacOS and attach it to bugzilla, it might
be possible to enable the SVN addin by default.
