To be precise, this bug should be submitted against the mono 2.6 OSX preview,
but that is not in the web form version list.

On OSX, when a Form is displayed then Dispose'd, the system appears to retain a
reference of some sort to the disposed Form object.  The code below repeatedly
creates a very simple form then disposes of the form once the ShowDialog()
method has returned.  Usually after between 5 and 10 iterations of this,
problems start occuring: either the UI will stop responding entirely, or new
windows won't display, or new windows don't draw.

When the exact same compiled assembly is executed on SLES 11 mono 2.4, no
problems manifest.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
public class formTest
{
  public static void Main (string[] arg)
  {
    // creating and disposing of forms on mono/OSX causes problems...
    for (int i=0; i<20; i++) {
      System.Windows.Forms.Form form = new System.Windows.Forms.Form();
      System.Windows.Forms.TableLayoutPanel tlPanel = new
System.Windows.Forms.TableLayoutPanel();

      System.Windows.Forms.Label label = new System.Windows.Forms.Label();
      label.Text = "" + i;
      form.Controls.Add(label);

      System.Windows.Forms.Button button = new System.Windows.Forms.Button();
      button.Text = "Close";
      button.DialogResult = System.Windows.Forms.DialogResult.OK;
      button.Anchor = System.Windows.Forms.AnchorStyles.None;

      tlPanel.Controls.Add(label, 0, 0);
      tlPanel.Controls.Add(button, 0, 1);
      tlPanel.Dock = System.Windows.Forms.DockStyle.Fill;
      tlPanel.Size = new System.Drawing.Size(50, 50);
      form.Controls.Add(tlPanel);

      form.Size = form.GetPreferredSize(new System.Drawing.Size(0, 0));
      form.FormBorderStyle = System.Windows.Forms.FormBorderStyle.FixedDialog;
      form.MaximizeBox = false;
      form.MinimizeBox = false;
      form.StartPosition = System.Windows.Forms.FormStartPosition.CenterScreen;
      //form.Scale(new System.Drawing.SizeF(2, 2));
      try {
        form.ShowDialog();
      } finally {
        form.Dispose();
      }
    }
  }
}
