+Summary: mono_get_lmf_addr crash
+
+Description of Problem:
+When I use interop to add a new ObjC class to the ObjC runtime and let that class pose as 
+NSObject, then I can override the dealloc method, calling the original NSObject implementation. 
+This works fine as long as I do not display an alert sheet (using NSAlert's 
+-(void)beginSheetModal...); shortly after I do, Mono aborts with an assertion failure in 
+mono_get_lmf_addr in mini.c (as recently posted on the Mono list).
+
+
+Steps to reproduce the problem:
+1. Create a native subclass of NSObject that overrides the dealloc method via a delegate into 
+managed code.
+2. Let that native class pose as NSObject, using either [TheNewClass poseAsClass:NSObject] ObjC 
+method or p/invoked class_poseAs ObjC runtime function.
+3. Create a new NSWindow instance.
+4. Add an NSButton to the window's view.
+5. Attach event handler code to the button that calls NSAlert's 
+-(void)beginSheetModalForWindow:modalDelegate:didEndSelector:contextInfo: method.
+6. Call [NSApplication sharedApplication's] -(void)run.
+7. Compile, execute and click on the button to execute the event handling code.
+
+Actual Results:
+Mono aborts shortly after the sheet is displayed and reports an error in mono_get_lmf_addr 
+function in mini.c (that should never be reached) on the console. If no alert sheet is displayed the 
+app runs fine, all other callbacks or p/invoke calls I use execute as expected. If I do not pose as 
+NSObject then the sheet is displayed as expected.
+
+Expected Results:
+A lot of callbacks to the managed dealloc method, but no abort of Mono runtime.
+
+How often does this happen? 
+Every time an alert sheet is displayed. It happens with both mcs and gmcs.
+
+Additional Information:
+My Cocoa/ObjC bridge code and a test case are available on request. (posing and some other 
+features are not supported or not working in the SVN Cocoa#)
