Thanks, that explains it. I took the easy way out: I still have my compiled version of mono in /usr/local, and I installed other packages, like gtk-sharp, using MacPorts. Taking care my environment variables are ok, this works. Of course, now I have two mono versions, but the MacPorts one is only used for MacPorts packages. I use the /usr/local one.

Note that things installed in /usr/local can interfere with things you want to install with MacPorts, which is why recommend /usr/local be empty if you want to use MacPorts. Any prefix other than /usr/ local, the MacPorts prefix (/opt/local), and the system prefixes (/, / usr) would be fine. If you choose to keep things in /usr/local, don't be surprised if software installed with MacPorts starts linking with things in /usr/local and causing strange problems as a result.
