 According to all the w32 documentation I can find (including the
 .net class docs) setting an AutoResetEvent should only release one
 thread, even if many are waiting.  Do you have some contradictory
 documentation?

+From the MS documentation on CreateEvent:
+
+"When the state of an auto-reset event object is signaled, it remains
+signaled until a single waiting thread is released; the system then
+automatically resets the state to nonsignaled. If no threads are
+waiting, the event object's state remains signaled."
+
+It says that when 1 single thread released, the state is changed to
+nonsignaled, but doesn't specify that it will only wake up 1 thread...
+
+Moreover, running the test under MS runtime it says "Test Ok" for all
+the tests.
+
+Under mono with current CVS, only 1 fails:
+*** Testing multiple thread blocks on AutoResetEvent ***
+The following thread ids did not receive an event:
+   Thread #1
+   Thread #2
+   Thread #3
+   Thread #4
+Test Failed

+AutoResetEvent should only release one waiting thread per call to Set().
+
+The test case fails when call Set() is called from another thread, but
+works fine called from the same thread.
