           Summary: GC.Collect() + WeakRefence behaviour differs from CLR
                    behaviour.
           Product: Mono: Runtime
           Version: SVN
          Platform: Other
        OS/Version: Other
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P5 - None
         Component: GC

The following testcase passes on the clr, but fails on mono.
I don't know enough about GC's to say who is right and who is wrong, I just see
that it's different:

using System;

public class MonoTest
{
    public static int Main()
    {
        var obj = new Version();
        WeakReference reference = new WeakReference(obj);
        obj = null;
        GC.Collect();
        Console.WriteLine("reference.IsAlive: " + reference.IsAlive);

        if (reference.IsAlive) return 1; //fail

        return 0; //pass
    }
}
