I had to install the 32bit Mono -> http://www.mono-project.com/download/stable/ ran into the same issue.

Any update on this

[jcapellman]

I assume most have moved onto DNNE as a replacement for this project - not to mention some of the new capabilities in .NET 6 + CoreRT's future to create native binaries.
