[MonoDevelop] Crash on Windows 7 (apparently due to generics)

[Brian Schuth]

You're not the only one running MD on Windows 7; I've been developing an app
for some months in it, and I'm sure I'm not alone. My app is full of
generics, too.

I can report that I do not see your crash when running the MonoDevelop 2.4.2
stable release, but you say you're running off of the git code base, so you
may well be running more recent code than I. I tested it embedded in a Gtk#
solution; does the kind of project in which you load your sample matter?

Is your intention to get work done in MD, or to compile & use it yourself?
If the first, I recommend uninstalling whatever you've got and going with
the stable release; otherwise, I think you're kind of on your own.

Apologies if I'm misunderstanding anything in your question. Good luck!
