[MonoDevelop] weird behavior using MonoDevelop 3.0.1 on OS X 10.7.3

[Jeff Stedfast]

My *guess* is that your ~/.recently-used file has some invalid characters
in the XML.

Could you confirm? And if so, could you submit a bug report and attach that
file? Presumably something caused MonoDevelop to save an invalid XML file.

Hope that helps,

Jeff
