I am  trying to upgrade to a more recent version of Mono and am running into 
issues when building from the command line. I have been using Xamarin Studio's 
(MonoDevelop) mdtool until this point, but since the 4.0 release of Mono it now 
throws an error:

FATAL ERROR [2015-08-17 10:14:27Z]: System.NullReferenceException: Object 
reference not set to an instance of an object

Since xbuild is supposed to be the newer way to compile from the command line, 
I tried to compile using that instead. While the solution compiles, there seems 
to be a bug in how xbuild evaluates conditions for some items of referenced 
projects which results in some files from the build output not being copied. I 
have filed a bug for that https://bugzilla.xamarin.com/show_bug.cgi?id=33082 
but would appreciate any insight as to where to even start looking.
