I hope for you, but once again it can came from the dll, it seem
dificult to find the origin of the problem, in best case the line
code, i have complety no knoweldge with asp, but for C#/VB WinForm
app, i suggest you, if you can,  try to compil mono and/or 3rd dll
from source to see the code line number.

After , if you can provide a test case and don't be speed about
imiedatly response, post a bug + testcase at bugzillia :

Cordially.

Small Eric Quotations of the days:
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
If one day one reproaches you that your work is not a work of
professional, say you that:
Amateurs built the arch of Noah, and professionals the Titanic.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Few people are done for independence, it is the privilege of the powerful ones.
