[Mono-dev] Problem in Mono's implementation of System.IO.StreamReader?

[Thiago Padilha]

Actually, I worked arround this by wrapping the networkstream inside a
bufferedstream then used a binaryreader to advance line by line
without much performance loss. Then I just passed the bufferedstream
which was on the right position(even though it probably consumed the
entire networkstream).
