[Mono-dev] StackOverflow in System.Array.Clear

[lambdalice]

Hi there!
I'm lambdalice, a 16 years old Japanese student studying the .NET
technology.
I like Nemerle, a multi paradigm .NET program language and use it.

One day I've tried to process some Nemerle macro, which converts a brainf*ck
into a Nemerle code.
It perfectly works on the native(?) Windows .NET environment and the Mono
for Windows.
But, in Mono on Linux, it fails with a strange error message:

Stack overflow in unmanaged: IP: 0xb7565a1a, fault addr: 0xb5b43fac
Stack overflow in unmanaged: IP: 0x80e9cc7, fault addr: 0xb5b42fcc

  at Nemerle.CommandlineCompiler.MainClass.main_with_catching () [0x00000]

I can't imagine why only the Array.Clear causes stack overflow.
Array.ClearInternal looks going internally into a native code.
I'm not good at the C language and not know about implementation of Array in
Mono, so I couldn't realize how the exception happens.

The source code causing that issue is here: github.com/lambdalice/MacroBF
and the Nemerle compiler is available at: nemerle.org
The my unofficial APT repo which contains the latest Nemerle compiler:
lambdalice.github.io/repo/

Please see also the discussion in the Nemerle forum:
groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/nemerle-en/xNrjBBqtoYE
and any help please. thanks
