My environment: 

   Mac OSX  10.6.4 
   Mono 2.8.2 
   XQuartz 2.6.0 

I followed the link, http://mono-project.com/Mono_Basics, to create WinForms
Hello World testing program. However, I got the following error: 

Unhandled Exception: System.TypeInitializationException: An exception was
thrown by the type initializer for
System.Windows.Forms.WindowsFormsSynchronizationContext --->
System.TypeInitializationException: An exception was thrown by the type
initializer for System.Windows.Forms.ThemeEngine --->

I checked the libgdiplus.dylib and it looked OK 
$ otool -L
