I'm not sure I/we communicated this clearly: If we disable generic
sharing when --debug is used, which is what we propose, then the only
scenario that doesn't work is attaching to a Mono process that wasn't
started with --debug, and the user will get a message saying that to
attach to such a process it's necessary to start it with -O=-gshared.
"Normal" debugging (i.e. starting Mono from within the debugger) and
attaching to a process that was started with --debug will work fine.

Is attaching to a non --debug Mono process a widely used feature?
