As you noticed, Visual Studio for mac is basically Xamarin Studio, so
the API is very different to VS for Windows.
I tried VS for mac once, and AFAIR it even installed Mono-D, but some
referenced assemblies have changed. I suspect it wouldn't be too much
work to adapt Mono-D, but that would be unlikely me doing it ;-)
