I am running this on Windows 7.

The application is not being run as a console app, however the standard
output is being piped to a log file where we are able to receive all cout
and fprintf statements.

After doing a bit of digging last night I found that Mono was outputting
this statement when the System.Console.Write was being executed.
"Assertion at f:\mono-master\mono\metadata\marshal.c:8912, condition
`enter_method' not met"

I looked a bit into the mono code and the "enter_method" appears to be
something that deals with thread locking, which I think the system didn't
init or wasn't able to find.  Though I'm not very familiar with the inner
workings it suggests that something in the setup is not right.

Below is the code I'm using to init the framework.

The App.exe is quite simple.
