+Summary: Mono handles exceptions in C# callbacks from C++ incorrectly.
+
+Description of Problem: 
+ 
+When an C++ (unmanaged) function invokes a C# delegate, and the delegate uses a 
+throw statement to raise an exception, the actual exception that should have been 
+raise is lost and mono instead reports a null reference exception. 
+ 
+This only seems to occur when the call-stack is non-trivial. For example, in the 
+relatively simple case where a C# method calls a C++ function, the C++ function 
+calls a C# delegate method, and the C# method throws an exception, things work 
+fine. But in a real program, like Qt, where the stack is far more complicated, this bug 
+reveals itself. 
+ 
+In the attached program, clicking the button should cause an ArgumentException to 
+be throw. Running the problem with mono --trace reveals that a null reference 
+exception occurs just after ArgumentException's constructor exits. Running the 
+program in gdb gives 
+ 
+program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.
