[Mono-osx] Bundled mono console application on OS X throwing gthread errors.

[silver83]

I have bundled a mono console application using the following steps :
1. use mkbundle to create the binary
2. use macpack to create a dummy .app
3. inject the bundled binary into the .app's resources folder
4. rewire the execution script and the files under /Resources to execute the
binary  

I run the application and everything is fine, but now I want to rewire
library dependencies - 
I'm using code from : 
   
http://code.google.com/p/cocoa-sharp-dev/wiki/RedistributableAppWithoutInstallingMono

to inject mono libraries into Resources folder, rewire my app to use them,
and rewire them to use themselves (using otool -L to see their dependencies,
and install_name_tool to rewire them).

During rewiring, I exclude things that I consider "non-mono" -
CoreFoundation, Carbon, libgcc, and libSystem.  I've tried several mixtures
of which libraries to exclude, and I either end up with a mono-dependent
application, or an application that crashed on :

GThread-ERROR **: GThread system may only be initialized once.

Some of the crash report :

Any help (clues, hints, things I can do to debug this, maybe dtrace or
something) - would be much appreciated...

Thanks in advance 
Yoni.
