It will most likely prevent you from using the app, but it depends on
the status of the unsupported method. If it's marked with TODO, it
might work. If it's missing or when it's marked as throwing NIE
(NotImplementedException), the app will definitely not run.

It's irrelevant how the application was compiled. If some methods are
missing from Mono, you won't be even able to compile the app using Mono.
