[Mono-osx] MonoDevelop and GTK#

The only problem is that they are not visible to the MonoDevelop application.

How can I ensure that MonoDevelop sees all Assemblies?

In order to find out what might be wrong I performed the following:

- Reinstalled OSX completely clean.
- Installed all updates.
- Installed Mono framework 2.0.1 from the DMG on the site.
- Installed MonoDevelop 2.0 Alpha 1 from the DMG on the site.
- Run MonoDevelop
- Create a new Glade# Project
- Right Click References, Edit References

I've inserted a screenshot that will show what occurs. The assemblies that
are already added are the gtk stuff needed, however, the assembly list from
the GAC above does not show any of them. therefore compilation fails.

So clearly, MonoDevelop is only showing me a partial list for some reason. I
do not know how it decides to only show certain assemblies... it really
makes no sense. If I check the folder that holds all the assemblies, they
are all there.

Can you give me any information that would help me understand this? I am
aware that the libraries are installed, but that does not help me understand
why monodevelop does not see them...
