Yes: the Mono Mobile profile is a superset of the Silverlight profile, and
Silverlight doesn't include that type:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.collections.specialized(VS.95).aspx
The types that Mono Mobile does include were largely because of customer
request and internal requirements circa two years ago (when MonoTouch was being
launched), plus various additions since. Apparently no one has requested that
type yet. :-)
If you would like that type made public, please file a bug and we will review
the request.
Thanks,
