+Summary: System.Net.Socket.SetSocketOption accepts boolean true for SocketOptionName.KeepAlive
+
+Please fill in this template when reporting a bug, unless you know what you
+are doing.
+Description of Problem:
+When I set the KeepAlive option of a socket, mono accepts to pass true and
+it works. When I try the same code on windows with MS .NET it will fail
+with an argument exception for optionValue. According to MSDN the boolean
+options must be past as nonzero for true and zero for false.
+Passing 1 works on Mono and MS .NET
+
+Steps to reproduce the problem:
+
+using System;
+using System.Net;
+using System.Net.Sockets;
+class MainClass {
+  static void Main() {
+    IPEndPoint ep = new IPEndPoint(IPAddress.Loopback, 1);
+    Socket sock = new
+Socket(ep.Address.AddressFamily,SocketType.Stream,ProtocolType.Tcp);
+    sock.SetSocketOption(SocketOptionLevel.Socket,
+SocketOptionName.KeepAlive, true);
+  }
+}
+
+Actual Results:
+it works
+
+Expected Results:
+failing with an argument exception like MS .NET does
+
+How often does this happen? 
+always
