[Mono-dev] mono 2.6.3 breaks https connections

[Latif Khalifa]

Yes, in order to provide X509 certificate generation capability, that
would also work when executing under .NET, we've been including
Mono.Security assembly with our binaries. That worked until 2.6.3. I
guess we now have to find out a different way to generate self-signed
server certs for https connections, that would run from the same set
of shipped executables under both runtimes.
