[MonoDevelop] Mono 2.8 .Net 4.0 and Nunit

[Dale Ragan]

You will need to do two things:

1.  When running nunit-console, you will need to pass -framework flag and
set it to mono-4.0

2.  Modify nunit-console.exe.config by adding under the <configuration>
section:
  <startup>
    <requiredRuntime version="v4.0.####" /> ### = released version of the
.net 4.0 runtime.  I'm not sure what it is off the top of my head
  </startup>

  and adding under <configuration><runtime>

  <legacyUnhandledExceptionPolicy enabled="1" />
  <loadFromRemoteSources enabled="true" />

HTH,

Dale
