[Mono-winforms-list] Programs compiled on Delphi 2005 using MWF hang on exit

[Pavel Bansky]

Hi Jordi and all Mono fans,

Mono is amazing and I'am upgrading with every new release in Debian
Testing repository - currently 1.1.9.1-3. I throw away the Delphi2005
and using C# and have no problems.

Anyway, the report I take when executing my old D2005 app in Linux is 
pasted at the end of the message.
On Windows version of Mono 1.1.9.2, execution has no output and Mono
proccess starts growing in mamory - finaly I got the message box
Tittle: "Fatal error in gc" Text: "Too many heap sections". Application
work on .NET Framework 1.1 without problems.

I have experienced absolutely NO problems when using C# and 
Windows.Forms on Mono - even with the theme called 'nice'.
