Hi,

please look this two link to MS documentation:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms149581(VS.80).aspx
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms149581(v=VS.85).aspx

The first link is related to .Net 2.0 while the second it related with .Net 3.0
In the first case the maxStackSize parameter need to be greater of 128k. In the
second case this constraint is removed.

Mono actually have a behavior of .Net 2.0 ever.
I suppose that to have a behavior like to .Net 3.0 and upper is better for
compatibility with .Net application.

Here there is the patch to get this one.

             threadstart = start;
             Internal.stack_size = maxStackSize;
