 Thanks for the test case. Your problem is fixed in SVN (r60298).
 
 I'm keeping the bug open to fix the problem when the security manager
 is active (but that will be after Mono 1.2 release).

+Two other things:
+
+(a) the patch was also applied to the 1.1.13.x branch (r60300). Newer
+(non beta) version of Mono will have the fix too;
+
+(b) an immediate workaround would be to call
+
+Thread.CurrentThread.ExecutionContext.SuppressFlow ();
+
+(or similar code in each thread) inside your application. This will
+not flow any data, including the compressed stack.
