I used the workaround. Now xsp doesn't terminate with an exception,
but I still receive the 'Thread was being aborted' error, and it seems
to happen most of the time at:

System.Web.Mvc.WebFormViewEngine.FileExists
(System.Web.Mvc.ControllerContext controllerContext, System.String
virtualPath)

Here is the full stack trace:
