+Summary: Multithreaded Drawstring causes NullReference exception
+
+Description of Problem:
+When several threads simultaneously attempt to use drawstring (on different
+bitmaps) there is often a NullReference exceptions. Running this through
+gdb it is often a segfault occuring in the 'MeasureOrDrawString' function,
+here is a backtrace:

+#1  0xb7564bb8 in cairo_set_font (cr=0x82cf940, font=0x1) at cairo.c:879

+1. Compile the attached program with mcs -r System.Drawing charter.cs
+2. Run charter like so: charter.exe 10
+3. Run it several times
+
+Actual Results:
+Sometimes it throws one or more NullReference exceptions, sometimes after
+these exceptions it doesn't exit
+
+Expected Results:
+Runs to completion and exits without any output
+
+How often does this happen? 
+Frequently, but not every time.
