this patch should fix this problem... it has been applied on our mono 2.0
production server

A NullReferenceException can happens in the SessionSQLServerHandler if :

The database is crashed or unavailable : a SessionSQLServerHandler object is
created, Init is called -> InitializeConnection throw exception and cnc is
nullified.
Just after the database is available but the SessionSQLServerHandler object is
still alive. and it can't recreate the connection (cnc object) because it is
null



Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Shut off you session sql database
2. Launch xsp -> Get index.aspx -> You get an exception -> Normal
3. Switch on your session sql database
4. Get index.aspx
Actual Results:
