title: Exception on System.Drawing.GDIPlus when built for Mac App Store
body: <p>I posted this on the mono forums with no luck:</p>
  
  <p>The following code is causing me some headaches: </p>
  
  <pre><code>private void MyMethod(string Filename) 
  {
       Bitmap bmp = null; 
  
       try 
       { 
           // load the qr stuff 
           bmp = new Bitmap(Filename); 
  
           // etc...
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>When I run it in the debugger/ide I have no issues, however when I build the app and create an installer for the Mac App store I get the following exception: </p>
  
  <p>An exception was thrown by the type initializer for System.Drawing.GDIPlus</p>
  
  <p>This seems like some sort of configuration issue, or maybe a dll isn't being put in the build. Any help to resolve this would be greatly appreciated. </p>
  
  <p>Apologies if this has already been answered and I haven't found it.</p>
