[Mono-list] embeded mono segfaults without calling managed code

[Chris Ochs]

Hey thanks that solved most of the problem.  I'm getting a segfault now
when I call mono_thread_attach(mono_domain_get()) at some point later in a
thread that's not the main thread.

I have a functions to load the image, create objects, and call methods on
those objects.

What works is if I create the image and objects in the main thread, then
make calls to the objects from any other java thread.  What's strange is
that when calling a method on the object in another thread,  if I pass
mono_domain_get() to mono_thread_attach it segfaults, but if I get the
domain by calling mono_object_get_domain on the object I am calling a
method on, it works fine.

I'll post more info when I get it.  This kind of stuff might be good to put
in the embedding docs.
