[MonoTouch] MonoDevelop 2.8.8.2 / MonoTouch dll Output Folder Error

[Craig Dunn]

Not sure why 2.8.8.2 is packaging 'Library Projects' as app bundles, but
another tacky workaround is to 'show contents' of the .app file it is
generating and copy the DLL out into the same folder, then rebuild.
WARNING: rebuilds won't pick up the latest - you would need to do this
manually after every build, then build again (if that makes sense).
