+Your decision is a very dogmatic one. A pragmatist would realize that
+this "bug" has existed in Microsoft's implementation in every version
+shipped and therefore should be copied in Mono's implementation to
+gain compatibility. Look at the PInvoke methods thrown up by MOMA as
+compatibility additions, even though they are not part of any standard.
+
+The fact is that code written for .Net 1.0 works in .Net 1.1 and .Net
+2.0, yet fails to work in Mono. That's a bug in Mono.
