Updated a working XF project to the newest stable Xamarin framework then again to the beta (due to Bug 60445) and now my android project dies horribly with JNI DETECTED ERROR IN APPLICATION: can't make objects of type android.support.v4.app.FragmentPagerAdapter when trying to render tabs. Seems to be linked to AppCompat stuff as the default TabbedPageDemo still works OK but If I change it to use AppCompat it also dies in the same way.
Any suggestions on how to fix this (short of removing all traces of Xamarin from VS2015 and re-installing the older working version)?
Simple repro project here: https://github.com/xamarin/xamarin-android/issues/1216
Thanks
