[Mono-list] Exception with DllMap on Windows

[Alan McGovern]

There's no need to place P/Invokes in a separate assembly. There's no
benefit to it. As was said before, just use the windows name for each
library in your code and on non-windows platforms include the .config
file with the dllmap sections in it.
