[Mono-list] Using Windows DLL in Linux

[Alan]

NotImplementedExceptions can be thrown on purpose so that in itself is
not a concern unless it throws that incorrectly in your particular
case. Similarly for MonoTodo - It does not necessarily mean the
method/property doesn't work. It could just be suboptimal, or maybe it
only works in 95% of cases. So that's only a problem if it doesn't
work in your particular case.

In other words, it's quite likely it'll work just fine.

Alan.
