You don't need the second check. The assert is there to make sure we have
everything in sync.

I believe a nicer fix would be to do something like " if (!ins->next) {
ins->next = OP_NOP; break; }" only
as it would reduce the diff size and nesting levels.

The best way to get the fix in is to fork mono from github and make a pull
request. Reference the bug number on it
and we'll take care of the rest.

Thanks a lot for working on this.
