[Mono-list] mcs/gmcs crash

I just installed Mono 1.1.18, which appears to include the patch, and  
the issue is no longer reproducable! Mcs exits without any  
CrashReporter messages on the console.

I also tried running in parallel my Cocoa-based Mono application,  
Xcode embedding Mono and gmcs without problems. (When running  
multiple instances of Java apps there were sometimes Mach port  
warnings on the console, but apparently not for multiple mono  
instances.)

The above was on Tiger; I also tested it on Panther (which I believe  
I hadn't before) and I did not observe any issues running my app and  
mcs.

Thanks to you and Robert for the workaround.
