These kind of mono crashes can be very difficult to work with.

In general, in order to help developers my advice would be to create the simplest possible scenario that triggers the 
problem (e.g. if you are using a linkset, try a single prim instead - if you are using a complicated script, make the 
script as simple as can be).

Conversely, it is also worth creating a scenario with a very large number of the simplest possible prim/scripts in order 
to trigger the crash as quickly as possible.  This is the approach I took when diagnosing recent dynamic texture 
generation issues that would native crash mono-based simulators.

The more easily reproducible the issue the more likely it is to get to the top of a developer's todo list.
