 After some mail exchange with the PR submitter, the problem has been
 identified and a workaround was found (switch threading libraries).
 
 The following patch add information in the pkg-message file.

    - Removing kernel options or changing defaults to use experimental
      options can adversely affect Mono's ability to build and run.
  
 +* The FreeBSD 6 kernel support for user threads (KSE(2), enabled by
 +  default) is known to break Mono. KSE has been disabled by default in
 +  FreeBSD 7.0 and removed in FreeBSD 8.0.  Use libmap.conf(5) to use

  * Remove leftover semaphores / increase semaphore limits.
    - Close apps which use Mono and run `ipcs -sbt`.  Remove the
      semaphores with MODE "--rw-------" and NSEMS "8" using ipcrm (1)
