It should work, but for small devices you might want to look into
trimming down Gtk# to the minimal set of APIs required for it.

This could be doing by hacking Gtk# to support different profiles, or
even better by creating the linking tool that trims down libraries (the
tool we have discussed in the context of Cecil).
