_Mono_ has, but the Mono for Android profile is based atop the Silverlight profile (with lots of extensions over the years). Go to the following sites:

	http://androidapi.xamarin.com/
	http://docs.go-mono.com/

Expand the "Base Class Library" tree on the left hand panes. Notice that many namespaces are simply missing in Mono for Android, e.g. System.CodeDom, System.Configuration, System.Data.OleDb (and other sub-namespaces), System.Drawing.*, System.IO.Ports, System.Media, etc. etc.

The only way to be sure it'll work is to compile from source.
