Platform Specific Changes:

The Mac build for v1.5.3.8 requires Mono 5.14 or higher, due to a change in the Mono runtime on Mac. The app will recognise this, and prompt you to upgrade if required.

At the present time, this appears to be a regression in Mono (We are using no new features), and a bug has been filed with them on this subject.
