The trigger for the crash in the bug report is a
System.Collections.Hashtable.ContainsKey call that passes null for key.
This throws ArgumentNullException on mscorlib, but succeeds on the mono
corlib.  I have filed a bug report against the mono corlib to add the
ArgumentNullException.

FWIW, I think the ArgNullException is just a symptom of another bigger
problem with this bug.  We really shouldn't be getting into that code
AFAICT in the TextView.get_Buffer case, so I'm afraid we may be getting
something funky back from the gobject introspection code on win32.

This stuff is really only used by language binding code, and I'm not
sure if any other bindings have really deployed on top of
Gtk+-for-win32.
