Your test case worked with HEAD (1.1.x) and failed with the 1-0 branch.
I applied a missing patch to the 1-0 branch and it works now for both
versions.

I don't know if the changes in 1.0.x will make it into the new release
of mono (due in a few days), but the upcoming 1.1.x version will work
fine.

Thanks for the report and the test case.
