I'm currently building the 1.2.2 packages in rawhide. 

There are a couple of bugs in your packages btw. Moving libgdiplus.so to
libgdiplus-devel is gonna break System.Drawing unless you have
libgdiplus-devel installed, as mono dlopens "libgdiplus.so".

You moved a bunch of core lib*.so (i.e. libMonoPosixHelper.so) to
mono-devel that are also opened by name (and they hanve no .so.x
versions). These are needed to run mono apps, and shouldn't be in
mono-devel.

Also, i'm not sure what the libtool changes were used for. They didn't
seem necessary.
