pyrania, as you seem to be the only one maintaining this, you would do well to add a metadata.xml file with you in it.

Can you please report the output of "emerge info" ?

I've also just added icu-2.6.2 to the tree, which should also work to fulfill the dep for mono. Please try using that as well.
