[Mono-list] Mac OS X / Mono Beta 3 Issue

Still getting the same problem.  I did what Jonathan Stowe suggested 
and edited the config file in /data/mono to point to libc.dylib on my 
system (/usr/lib/libc.dylib).  I also symlinked to the mono directory 
as you suggested.  My system looks like this now:

Actual mono config dir:
/usr/local/etc/mono

Symlink dirs:
/usr/etc/mono -> /usr/local/etc/mono
/etc/mono -> /usr/local/etc/mono

Any other ideas?

Thanks.
