+Summary: AutoResetEvent causes memory leak when compiled with gmcs
+
+Description of Problem:
+When using AutoResetEvent and compiling with gmcs, memory is leaked;
+however, this does not occur when using mcs.
+
+
+Steps to reproduce the problem:
+Compile this app with gmcs and run, then with mcs and run
+
+using System;
+using System.Threading;
+
+namespace Ipop {
+  public class IPOP_Common {
+    public static void Main() {
+      AutoResetEvent re = null;
+      while(true) {
+        re = new AutoResetEvent(false);
+        re.Close();
+      }
+    }
+  }
+}
+
+Actual Results:
+gmcs: memory usage explodes
+mcs: memory stabilizes at > 5 MB
+
+Expected Results:
+gmcs should not explode
+
+
+How often does this happen? 
+Every time
