[MonoTouch] Problem with .h files disappearing in Interface Builder

[Jeff Stedfast]

Hi Rene,

I'll pass this along to Alan who is on Lion (I'm stuck on Snow Leopard so
can't install 4.3). I think Xamarin will be ordering me a Lion machine on
Monday, though, since I need a Lion machine for some other work I've been
working on anyway.

The fix I committed yesterday was an attempt to eliminate any possible race
conditions in the logic that scanned the project's types in order to figure
out which classes to export to Xcode as .m/.h files.

Alan: can you look into this next week? Figure out what is in the ob/
directory that is causing Xcode 4.3 to hang and/or cause things not to sync
correctly?

Jeff
