[mono-android] [Monodroid] Getting Variable Values While Debugging

[Jon Valvatne]

I'm experiencing this as well, nearly two months later, but I haven't heard
anyone else talking about it. I can't find it in Bugzilla either.

So I guess I'd like the same quick sanity check Nathan requested - is this a
known issue? Or is there something wrong with my MonoDroid installation?
