I suspect this was caused by calling Invalidate on a Windows.Form from the 
wrong thread. I am aware that you should not do this, but I suspect the error 
should have been trapped before it caused a SIGSEV.

I have reported it as a bug at

http://bugzilla.ximian.com/show_bug.cgi?id=78548

If more information is needed, I will try to create a simple test application 
which reproduces the problem.
