+Summary: Background thread is not aborted after main thread
+
+In MonoDevelop, we have been having problems with exiting cleanly. 
+Whenever the program quits, by a standard exit method such as File | Exit 
+or when an exception is thrown, the program hangs.
+
+To fix the issue, I had to check in the following workaround:
+
+http://lists.ximian.com/archives/public/monodevelop-patches-list/2004-
+February/000461.html
+
+From that patch, it seems the issue is that we do not follow the meaning 
+of a background thread -- the program waits for the worker thread to 
+finish, which it never does (it is a while (true) loop).
+
+In .30 and under MS, the program exits cleanly.
