Banshee-1.2 seem to require at least dev-lang/mono-1.2.6 (as does
dev-dotnet/mono-addins for a different reasons, see bug 236169).
With the current stable Mono (1.2.5-r1), compiling gives this error:
Making all in Hyena
make[4]: Entering directory
`/var/tmp/portage/media-sound/banshee-1.2.0/work/banshee-1-1.2.0/src/Libraries/Hyena'
Compiling Hyena.dll...
./Hyena.Collections/QueuePipelineElement.cs(117,59): error CS0155: The type
caught or thrown must be derived from System.Exception
Mono-1.2.6 lets it compile OK.
