It appears that this problem occurs if any of the WaitOne() methods of
WaitHandle are called with exitContext=True, which is what the
SchedulerThread() does.  I created an alternate implementation of the Timer
class from the Mono source and changed it so that it called WaitOne() with
exitContext=False and it worked.

The purpose of the exitContext flag is described here:
