[Mono-dev] VBNC in Mono.

[Kornél Pál]

Hi,

I tracked down some corlib bugs and attached a patch that implements the 
behavior expected by vbnc. Mono seems to be stable with these modifications.

But I'm stuck with a runtime crash and I was unable to figure out what the 
problem is. I think this is a bug in the runtime.

See this message as well:
http://lists.ximian.com/pipermail/mono-devel-list/2006-October/020910.html

The crash occurs is at the same execution step in vbnc on Windows and Linux 
as well:

Starting Resolve
*** glibc detected *** free(): invalid next size (fast): 0x0000000003dcaff0 
***

=================================================================
Got a SIGABRT while executing native code. This usually indicates
a fatal error in the mono runtime or one of the native libraries
used by your application.
=================================================================

Stacktrace:

  at (wrapper managed-to-native) 
System.Reflection.MonoMethodInfo.get_parameter_info (intptr) <0x0000b>
  at (wrapper managed-to-native) 
System.Reflection.MonoMethodInfo.get_parameter_info (intptr) <0xffffffff>

I can't go further in making vbnc bootstrap on Mono until this is fixed.

Please help fixing the problem.
