[MonoDevelop] RemotingException: Unix transport error running tests

[Matt Calder]

Dan,

Thanks for the reply. I ran my tests using the nunit-console.exe and
nunit-console-x86.exe that come with MD, but when I try to use nunit.exe I
get segfaults. Perhaps this is essentially what MD is doing. I am looking
at the stacktraces to see if I can isolate the problem.
