[Mono-list] Fwd: Frequent segfaults in c# running on mono

[River Satya]

Hi mono list,

We see a lot of segfaults (~10 / day) in our program running on Ubuntu
Wheezy. I was hoping that upgrading to mono 4.2 would resolve it, but we're
still seeing them.

The stack traces take a few different forms, so it's possible that they're
actually separate issues.

We mostly see #1 and #4. #2 and #3 have only been seen in isolation, but
have more interesting stack traces.

These look to me like mono bugs. Are any of these known issues? Is there
anything I can do to either work around them and/or assist in debugging
them? They're currently causing significant problems in a mission critical
piece of software for my client.

(email split into pieces as the full version was rejected by the maillist
server).

Thanks,

River
