[Opensim-users] Ubuntu and magic mini-trampolines (crash problem)

GC may also be a problem. Though my experience with 2.4 at least is
that memory utilization is very good and in this case we have... "more
than enough" memory. :-)

Also... the consistency with which the problem occurs in log4net
methods called from within an executing script suggests that its not
just garbage collection. I'm not sufficiently mono-smart to root cause
this... so I'm looking for bandaids (which in this case amounts to
commenting out log4net calls in the call stack that caused the
problem) that work consistently. If someone with mono-smarts would
like to suggest some other ways to get data on this, I'm more than
willing to try something different.
