Geoff Norton was kind enough to clear that up for me after I enquired.

Apparently you just need to set the environment variables  
MONO_MWF_USE_QUARTZ_BACKEND and MONO_MWF_USE_CARBON_BACKEND and it  
runs as described (i.e. as GTK app, but without X11).

Having since tested this works as expected, I didn't realize this was  
the case (I also didn't realize that a X11 package (not including the  
sdk) is now installed by default (on Mac OS X 10.5).
