           Summary: Mono throws TypeLoadException due to some race

Running this program sometimes results in TypeLoadExceptions in the two
threads:

using System;
using System.Threading;
using System.Runtime.CompilerServices;

public class main {
    [MethodImplAttribute(MethodImplOptions.Synchronized)]
    public static void thread_func () {
    }

    public static int Main () {
    Thread t1 = new Thread (new ThreadStart (thread_func));
    Thread t2 = new Thread (new ThreadStart (thread_func));

    t1.Start ();
    t2.Start ();

    t1.Join ();
    t2.Join ();

    return 0;
    }
}

On my x86 machine that happens about once out of every 200 runs.  On PPC64 this
program makes it happen much more frequently (around once out of every 5 runs):

using System;
using System.Threading;
using System.Runtime.CompilerServices;

public class main {
    static int global = 0;
    static Random random = new Random ();

    public static int fib (int i) {
    if (i < 2)
        return i;
    return fib (i - 2) + fib (i - 1);
    }

    [MethodImplAttribute(MethodImplOptions.Synchronized)]
    public static bool synch () {
    if (global != 0)
        return false;
    global = 1;
    fib (random.Next (5, 12));
    global = 0;
    return true;
    }

    public static void thread_func () {
    int i;

    for (i = 0; i < 1000; ++i)
        if (!synch ()) {
        Console.WriteLine ("fail");
        Environment.Exit (1);
        }
    }

    public static int Main () {
    Thread t1 = new Thread (new ThreadStart (thread_func));
    Thread t2 = new Thread (new ThreadStart (thread_func));

    Console.WriteLine ("starting");

    t1.Start ();
    t2.Start ();

    t1.Join ();
    t2.Join ();

    return 0;
    }
}
