+Summary: MonoThread domain-specific handling broken
+
+MonoThread is the unmanaged representation for the Thread object.
+The runtime should make sure the current MonoThread corresponds to the
+current domain, both in the finalizer thread and when appdomain changes
+happen. Currently, at least for the finalizer thread, the MonoThread object
+is not set, causing nullref exceptions when executing finalizers. If the
+object is not set correctly on domain changes it will cause random
+hard-to-track bugs, hence this is a major bug.

+Threads in the threadpol change the domain to the one of the
+IAsyncResult, but don't do anything else. What should I do?

+I've been looking at rotor to see what happens there to Thread objects
+in differing domains.  I noticed that thread attribute changes such as
+Name were propagated through to other domains.
+
+The attached example (along with a patch to rotor to implement the
+internal call showing the object address, mono just needs obj_address
+in Object.cs turned public) shows that the Thread object is the same
+in different domains.
+
+
+Output from rotor:
