[Mono-osx] System.Drawing not working on OSX 10.8 (latest Mono)

I have not had a chance to get to Bitmap and it is probably in the 
OpenGL implementation.

What I have done is commented those out in the monomac sources:

cd to monomac and

1)  comment out the following in src/OpenGL/INativeWindow.cs

// Icon Icon { get; set; }

2) comment out the following in src/OpenGL/MonoMacGameView.cs

//             Icon INativeWindow.Icon {
//                     get { throw new NotSupportedException ();}
//                     set { throw new NotSupportedException ();}
//             }

That should get you up and running for now.  You will need to compile 
the monomac sources.

in the src directory of monomac type -> make

When it finishes reference the the new MonoMac.dll in your project.

Let me know what happens.
