+Can people still seeing this problem do the following:
+
+1) Make sure the mono binary still has the debugging symbols.  CVS
+builds should have them, not sure about release rpms.  To check, do
+"file mono" and make sure it says "not stripped". (This assumes it was
+built with the -g switch, which it is by default.)
+
+2) Make sure you can write core files.  Modern dists turn this off by
+default.  "ulimit -c" to check, if it says "0" then run "ulimit -c
+unlimited" in the shell you run mono from.
+
+3) When the bug appears, you should have a file called "core" in the
+directory you ran mono from (or "core.<some process id>").   When that
+happens, email me and I'll take it from there.
+
+Don't just send me the core file! It's too big, and not useful on its
+own anyway.
