I submitted bug 377726 with an attached test project. I have since compiled
my code under SharpDevelop 3 and now the WINDOWS version of Mono is
rendering the controls correctly, but the Linux version is not, same
results.

Is there a way for me to tell which font Mono is trying to use in my
controls? Which "default" font should I set on my controls?
