 end so we have 2 bugs here:
 1) the segfault somewhere in the unwinding code which is most probably
 caused by mono because it does weird things (maybe something with
 stack alignement? but this is only a wild guess)
 2) the segfault in the segfault handler of mono which can be fixed by
 using the codemanager instead of g_malloc() for some reason.

+Except that (2) doesn't really make sense to me because the only
+difference should be that the code manager memory is executable while
+malloc()ed memory isn't ... but the G4 doesn't honour that anyway so
+all memory is executable when readable!
+
+Or maybe I'm missing something and there's another difference? Or
+something is overwriting the malloc()ed memory and not the other?
