The System.IO.Ports.SerialPort.NewLine can be set to an empty string where as
in .Net an ArgumentException is thrown.  Below is a little test case.

To fix this add this test to the NewLine setter:
if (value == ""){
    throw new ArgumentException("Argument NewLine cannot be null or
zero-length.");
}

--------------------------------------------------------------------
using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Text;
using System.IO.Ports;

namespace portNewLineTest{
    class Program{
        static void Main(string[] args){

            SerialPort port = new SerialPort();

            try{
                port.NewLine = "";
            }
            catch (Exception e){
                // .Net thows an exception...
                Console.WriteLine("Got exception:" + e.Message);
                return;
            }

            // Mono does not...
            Console.WriteLine("Got no exception, NewLine is now'" +
port.NewLine + "'");

        }
    }
}
