 Yes, its a real bug, but i dont think its the cause of the handle leak
 on windows.

+I think the cause of this is the gc finalizer issues mono's having.
+
+See: http://bugzilla.ximian.com/show_bug.cgi?id=35119.
+
+As far as I can see mon_finalize is never called which is probably 
+the cause of the bug.  A lighweight monitor implementation 
+(http://bugzilla.ximian.com/show_bug.cgi?id=35041) would help reduce 
+the number of handles created (to 0 ;)) in the test case given.  It 
+won't fix the problem with the GC tho...
