[Mono-osx] Registry permissions issue

[Tufnell]

I've got a mono application that uses a Windows .Net developed library that
has an unfortunate side effect in that it reads and writes a key to the
registry.

Now my application runs fine on OS X if I run it as an administrator (sudo
from the terminal) but as a regular user or from Mono Develop it falls over
with a System.UnauthorizedAccessException

But it's worse than that as this exception doesn't get caught by my global
try catch code which surrounds the call to the library which is a shame.

Is there a way to authorise access to the registry key in mono?

I've tried changing the security on the registry directory itself using
"chmod 755 registry"

Any suggestions would be great.
