+I have a workaround for this in CVS.
+
+Why do this happen with this code in ApplicationHost.cs?
+
+domain.SetData (".hostingInstallDir",
+ICalls.GetMachineInstallDirectory ());
+
+This is the workaround:
+
+string mid = new StringBuilder (ICalls.GetMachineInstallDirectory
+()).ToString ();
+domain.SetData (".hostingInstallDir", mid);
