 Summary: Decimal formatting bug in MONO Beta 3

 Also note that if I compile with MCS and then run the generated 
 assembly on MS.NET I get the correct "5.00" output.  So this is 
 definately NOT a MCS compiler bug it is a library bug.
 
 It would be good to get this fixed before we ship v1.0

+Using the following code on both Mono and MS runtime (mcs or csc)
+return "5" when input is "5.00".
+
+using System;
+class T {
+	static void Main (string[] args) {
+		Double n = Double.Parse (args [0]);
+		Console.WriteLine ("Output is : " + n);
+	}
+}
+
+
+The same for the following code...
+
+using System;
+class T {
+	static void Main () {
+		Double n = Double.Parse ("5.00");
+		Console.WriteLine ("Output is : " + n);
+	}
+}
+
+
+then I guess that your last sample would too... until I noticed your
+original test case was using the Decimal type (not Double) ;-).
+
+Note: I fixed a lot of small issues in Decimal since beta2 (but
+probably not this one). If you are a big user of the class I would
+appreciate if you could run your code on the next beta (real soon now).
