If I run the failing step by hand without /verbosity:quiet I get
$ cd src; /usr/bin/xbuild dbus-sharp.csproj

Note "/nostdlib" in the arguments for mcs.exe. This contradicts the line
<NoStandardLibraries>false</NoStandardLibraries>
in src/dbus-sharp.csproj.
Looks like mono-xbuild (4.0.2.5+dfsg-2) doesn't honor this setting
anymore. There's a suspicious change in
/usr/lib/mono/4.5/Microsoft.CSharp.targets from 3.2.8+dfsg-10 to
4.0.2.5+dfsg-2:

If I revert that change, "/nostdlib" is gone and dbus-sharp builds again.
