Krisztian,

Yes, the libglib-2.0-0.dll was from my mono install.  It appears that the
call GLib.Timeout.Add(...) inside of glib-sharp is compiled with a
PInvoke/DllImport call into libglib-2.0.-0.dll.  Unfortunately grabbing the
.dll (not a .NET assembly) and dropping it into the bin does not work.  We
could replace their GLib timer with ours, however I'm not familar with how
the GLib timer is suppose to operate.

I threw together a simple wrapper that uses the System.Threading Timer and
internally tracks the TimeoutHandler with an identifier since the delegates
for the two timers do not match.

The real problem of calling the exported methods in the other .dll's is
actually arising more beyond that point.  For example, when the
ClassicWindow's ctor is intialized, we are getting a
TypeInitializationException for the Gtk.Container with an inner exception
stating that it can not load gtksharpglue-2.dll.  I attempted to go through
the same process I did with the libglib-2.0.-0.dll but that did not work.
 It's almost as if these .dll's aren't being seen.  I also tried to PInvoke
the call to SetDllDirectory, as if to augment the loading loading path for
non .NET .dll's, however that did not provide any successful results.  I'm
open to any other ideas?
