+Summary: string-to-double parsing confused by trailing "\0"
+
+Description of Problem:
+ Parsing of string to float (double) value fails if
+the string contains trailing \0.
+
+Steps to reproduce the problem:
+ Compile and run this example:
+==============================
+using System;
+class App {
+    public static int Main(String[] args) {
+	System.Console.WriteLine(System.Double.Parse("1.0\0"));
+	return 0;
+    }
+
+}
+==============================
+
+Actual Results:
+ On mono beta 1 the output is:
+ Unhandled Exception: System.FormatException: Unknown char:
+
+Expected Results:
+ On MS .net the output is: 
+ 1
+
+How often does this happen? 
+ Always
+
+Additional Information:
+ Just some slight mono-vs-MS incompatability, though might 
+ cause specific applications to fail actually.
