 Compiled with mono & the microsoft sdk both tried.  
 It seams that the Windows version of mono throws a exception and the 
 gnu/linux  
 version doesn't. Also the microsoft .Net framework throws a exception.  
   
 running mono version 1.0.4

+Removing a file in a directory in which you have write permission is
+fine on linux no matter what the file permissions are. You'll get the
+exception you expect if you have no permissions for writing in the
+directory or if the sticky bit is set if you're not the owner of the file.
+
+I'm closing this as NOTABUG, but if you have further comments or think
+this should not be the case, feel free to reopen it for comments from
+other folks.
+
+Thanks.
