Gtk.ComboBoxEntry would be my first bet after i found out that Combo was
obsolete. However, i went to check it out and, in the documentation that
comes with last mono's version, it says:
"Mono Implementation Note:
	Gtk.ComboBoxEntry has not been implemented."


And "go-mono/docs" said same thing, i think. Now it doesn't says that
anymore. So i would think that:
- either they forgot to change the documentation while Combo was
obsolete and Gtk.ComboBoxEntry was already a replacer, and now the
online documentation is properly updated,

- or they marked Combo as obsolete without having Gtk.ComboBoxEntry
ready for replacement, and now Gtk.ComboBoxEntry is already implemented
in the most recent versions of Gtk# but it's still not shiped with the
current mono version.


In light of this new discoverie, i'm going to try Gtk.ComboBoxEntry and
see if it works and find out which one was it.
