[MonoTouch] Binding to Static Framework and using Core.Bluetooth

[Jeff Stedfast]

Hi Walt,

This is a very good question and unfortunately I do not have an answer for
it :-(

All I can suggest is that you try reordering the arguments like this:

-v -v -v -cxx -gcc_flags "-framework ExternalAccessory -framework
Security -F${ProjectDir}/Lib
-framework WFConnector -ObjC  -lstdc++ -all_load"

Also, you might try dropping -all_load? Do you need that?

If you find out, could you post a follow-up? Meanwhile, I've added a
feature request for our LinkWithAttribute to be aware of framework
libraries as well.

Jeff
