Mono for Android 1.2 is known to be incompatible with Android v4.0/ICS. (Google changed the JNI semantics we were using).

In order to run on ICS you'll need to rebuild your app under 1.9.2+/2.0. (Fortunately ICS devices are not currently available, and ICS won't be that widespread for some time, but that's only a minor consolation. Hopefully Google can fix this bug.)
