Problem with x11-toolkits/gnome-sharp20 port

[Stephen Montgomery-Smith]

Quite often the x11-toolkits/gnome-sharp20 port does not compile with 
the following error:

Making all in gconf

The problem seems to be with

work/gnome-sharp-2.16.0/sample/gconf/Settings.cs

which quite often has at its end stuff like

Thread 81ebe00 has exited with leftover thread-specific data after 4 
destructor iterations

This seems to be because this file is created using:

Settings.cs: $(SCHEMA)
 
MONO_PATH=$(top_builddir)/gconf/GConf/gconf-sharp.dll:${MONO_PATH} 
$(RUNTIME) $(GCONFDIR)/tools/gconfsharp-schemagen.exe Sample $(SCHEMA) > 
Settings.cs

which invokes mono whose output is redirected to Settings.cs. 
Unfortunately it looks like mono doesn't send its error messages to 
stderr but rather to stdout.

Maybe this is a problem with mono.  Anyway it's not working as it is.
