[Mono-list] Porting Windows Application

[Peter Dennis Bartok]

Paul,

Maybe you can provide some details as to what the app is doing. It obvious 
is calling AddMessageFilter, and SWF is failing. Any chance you can log a 
bug and attach the code snippet that causes the exception (or even better, 
make a small sample app that causes the same exception) so we have something 
to go by and fix? Or, maybe you could make the mathtest source available to 
myself or someone else on the SWF team to be able to fix this.

There should be no need to replace any winforms code with gtk#, we just need 
to fix whatever bugs you're running into.

Peter
