[MonoDevelop] Adding libraries

I have been doing some more fiddling with this.
The code that builds (but doesn't run) is a console App

I can't OK changes to the "edit references" pane for a GTK# application.
I tried with a brand new project and got the same result.

I am running Ubuntu 7.04 with MonoDevelop 0.12

I select Edit References and choose the .NET assembly tab. navigate to
my library and select Add.
Click OK and I get a dialog box which reads
Error while executing command: Edit References...

if I expand the details then there is a whole stack of exceptions headed by

Exception occurred: Exception has been thrown by the target of an invocation

System.Reflection.TargetInvocationException: Exception has been thrown
by the target of an invocation. ---> System.NullReferenceException:
Object reference not set to an instance of an object.

Any clues here?

thanks
