+Summary: A named mutex does not work.
+
+Please fill in this template when reporting a bug, unless you know what you
+are doing.
+Description of Problem:
+
+
+Steps to reproduce the problem:
+1. Run the following code.
+
+using System;
+using System.Threading;
+using System.Diagnostics;
+ 
+class MutexTest
+{
+    string name;
+    public static void Main(string [] args)
+    {
+        if (args.Length != 1)
+        {
+            Console.WriteLine("Usage:mutextest.exe (name)");
+            return;
+        }
+ 
+        MutexTest mt = new MutexTest(args[0]);
+ 
+        Thread t1 = new Thread(new ThreadStart(mt.getMutex));
+        Thread t2 = new Thread(new ThreadStart(mt.getMutex));
+        t1.Name = "Thread 1";
+        t2.Name = "Thread 2";
+ 
+        t1.Start();
+        t2.Start();
+ 
+        t1.Join();
+        t2.Join();
+    }
+ 
+    MutexTest(string n)
+    {
+        name = n;
+    }
+ 
+    void getMutex()
+    {
+        bool owned;
+        Mutex m = new Mutex(false, name);
+ 
+        Console.WriteLine(System.Threading.Thread.CurrentThread.Name + "
+Waiting for mutex " + name);
+        m.WaitOne();
+        Console.WriteLine(System.Threading.Thread.CurrentThread.Name + "
+owns the mutex " + name);
+        Console.WriteLine("Press Enter to exit...");
+        Console.ReadLine();
+        m.ReleaseMutex();
+    }
+}
+
+Actual Results:
+The Thread does not block.
+
+
+Expected Results:
+The Thread should block.
+
+
+How often does this happen? 
+every time.
+
+
+Additional Information:
+This works as expected in .NET on windows.
