It might help if you explain what you are trying to do.  It looks like 
on Mac, you are trying to compile Managed.Windows.Forms (MWF).  Is there 
a reason you are trying to do this instead of simply using the provided 
binary?  It looks like the compiler cannot find the Mono.Posix assembly.

It looks like here you are trying to compile some of your own code, but 
one of your projects is referencing MWF while another of your projects 
is referencing MS's System.Windows.Forms.
