Initial testing of the new Monobjc DLLs on Snow Leopard did NOT work for me.
I moved the /Library/Frameworks/Mono.Framework/Versions/2.6_M directory out of the way so it could not be referenced. I ran my app first and received this error: Monobjc.ObjectiveCException: The 'libmonobjc.2.dylib' library was not found. I then placed the dylib in the correct location. This verified to me that I was using the correct version of the Monobjc DLLs. Then running my app I still received a thread_get_state failure after a few minutes of running. crash report http://pastebin.com/m65fa182f Switching back to using the 2.6_M mono install the thread issue did not occur. Thanks for your continued efforts.
