See PR/45828 for a full description
http://gnats.netbsd.org/cgi-bin/query-pr-single.pl?number=45828

Note that just like PR/45828, i386 is broken but amd64 is OK.

That PR was marked as closed, perhaps because lang/mono has since been updated to a version that doesn't have the problem.  However, this bug is about lang/mono2, not lang/mono.  lang/mono2 is an older version of mono.  At the time 45828 was filed, lang/mono was at 2.10.6.  lang/mono2 is currently at 2.10.9 (2013Q4), which is probably similar enough that the problem I'm experiencing is indeed the same as PR/45828.

Applying the patch in PR/45828 fixed the problem for me, but I don't know if that's the "right" solution.  (Disabling garbage collection completely seems non-ideal to me, although maybe it only disables garbage collection for the lightweight C# compiler used to bootstrap?)

Upstream has tagged 2.10.10 through 2.10.12 in their Git repository, but they have not made any official release tarballs for these versions.  Release notes are not available for these revisions so it's unclear whether this bug has been fixed upstream between 2.10.10 and 2.10.12.

Also see PR/46147, which has similar symptoms but is unrealated (AFAIK).  That bug it was caused by a regression(?) in pthread introduced after netbsd-6 was already cut, and it affects amd64 unlike this bug.

Here is the tail end of the build output without the patch applied:

>How-To-Repeat:
1. install NetBSD 6.1
2. fetch pkgsrc-2013Q4 into /usr/pkgsrc
3. cd /usr/pkgsrc/lang/mono2
4. make package
>Fix:
see patch in PR/45828

or maybe it could be fixed by depending on devel/boehm-gc and linking against libgc.so from that package via '--with-gc=boehm' (instead of using the probably very old version of the Boehm garbage collector that comes with mono 2.10.9)

 Unfortunately the build still failed, but with a slightly different error:

 Note that it no longer segfaults; it instead errors out with
 "Insufficient memory for GC_all_nils".

 Can you try playing around with the UNLIMIT_RESOURCES variable?
 E.g. add
 UNLIMIT_RESOURCES=datasize stacksize memorysize
 in the Makefile; if that works, try finding the smallest
 necessary subset of these.

 Thanks,

 In which Makefile?  devel/boehm-gc or lang/mono2?

 The one that fails building, i.e. lang/mono2.

 No luck.  I tried just adding UNLIMIT_RESOURCES and there was no change
 in behavior.  I also tried both setting UNLIMIT_RESOURCES and linking
 against devel/boehm-gc using the patch I pasted in a previous comment to
 this PR, and there was no change in the behavior there, either.
