[ubuntu-mono] [Bug 229332] [NEW] Mono SIGSEGV in Load method of XmlDocument object

[Launchpad Bug Tracker]

You have been subscribed to a public bug:

When creating an XmlDocument object and calling its Load method, I
sometimes get a segmentation fault.

It occurs from a call that happens very soon after program execution
begins, before program input has much effect. If I try to run my program
and I get a segfault, I can reproduce it as many times as I want by
running the program again and again without changing anything (such as
other programs running). If I try to run my program and I don't get a
segfault, I can reproduce that in the same way. As long as everything
else remains the same, it doesn't change, but completely unrelated
things can trigger or prevent this bug.

I tried to capture the output by redirecting to a file, and even that
was enough to prevent this bug from occurring. (I ended up just copying
from the console.) This weird behavior makes me think the problem may be
in the threading, such as a race condition or something. As such, I am
not very optimistic about seeing a fix for this anytime soon. ;_;

I'm running Kubuntu 8.04 64-bit on a quad-core Intel Q6600.
