 The crash happens when trying to create an instance of Crasher, which
 throws an exception in the class constructor. After this crash, finalizers
 are not called anymore.
 
 Notice that if the exception shown is a regular exception it does not
 happen. It also does not happen if the Crasher class does not have a finalizer.

+This is because the finalizer calls mono_jit_runtime_invoke (), which
+calls other functions which raise the type load exception, but there is
+nobody to catch it since there is no managed frame on the stack, so the
+finalizer thread is aborted after the unhandled exception.
