-Summary: mcs return incorrect exit code when compiling with debug on
+Summary: Mono should throw bug when getting exit code of unfinished process
 
 When I compile rather large assemblies with debug on, compilation succeeds
 but mcs returns exit code 259 instead of exit code 0.
 
 I've attached an archive containing a small testcase and the log4net
 sources, that will allow you to reproduce this issue.

 You'll see that it will always return exit code 259.

 Created an attachment (id=4690)
 archive containing testcase and log4net sources to repro this issue

+Here is the real problem:
+
+According to
+http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/cpref/html/frlrfsystemdiagnosticsprocessclassexitcodetopic.asp
+When you get the status code of an unfinished process, it should throw
+an InvalidOperationException. However, we return 259, the Windows
+"process not finished" status.
+
+tbf ran this on Windows, and this is Microsoft's actual behavior.
+
+To repro, compile a program that sleeps for a very long time and run
+it with this code:
+using System;
+using System.Diagnostics;
+using System.IO;
+
+namespace Mcs {
+	public class Test {
+		public static int Main(string[] args) {
+
+
+			for (int counter = 0; counter < 20; counter++) {
+				Process cp = new Process();
+				cp.StartInfo.FileName = "program";
+				cp.StartInfo.Arguments = "args";
+				cp.StartInfo.UseShellExecute = false;
+				cp.Start();
+				cp.WaitForExit(2000);
+				Console.WriteLine("Exit Code: " + cp.ExitCode);
+			}
+
+			return 0;
+		}
+	}
+}		
+
+
+Obviously replacing program and args.
+
+The problem with NAnt is that it is not giving MCS a long enough timeout.
