Android App crashes with abort_application()

Description

I asked the Android team on Discord for help and @grendello suggested I ask here.

We have an net8.0-android App which over the past 28 days has crashed 1.18k times, with a stack trace looking like this:

*** *** *** *** *** *** *** *** *** *** *** *** *** *** *** ***
pid: 0, tid: 15428 >>> dk.TrackMan.Range <<<

It seems to be happening mostly on arm64 devices, but they are also the most prevalent in our install base:

crashes distributed by Android version and by Device

@grendello asked me for the libmonosgen-2.0.so file to figure out where the crash happens and he ended up here:

0x151814
/__w/1/s/src/mono/mono/mini/mini-trampolines.c:217

0x151eb4
/__w/1/s/src/mono/mono/mini/mini-trampolines.c:478

0x152e8c
/__w/1/s/src/mono/mono/mini/mini-trampolines.c:850

Reproduction Steps

I have no idea how to reproduce it and haven't seen it myself. Only the 1.18k crashes in Google Play Console.

Expected behavior

Preferably the App would not crash.

Actual behavior

Lots of Crashes.

Regression?

I see it for older versions of the App to, so I don't believe so.
