This reminds me of some issue I had some years ago.
But I could not reproduce it anymore with Mono 3.12.0
https://bugzilla.xamarin.com/show_bug.cgi?id=11833

Perhaps the patch
https://github.com/mono/mono/commit/8c2167d52cb9acf9582647ebb5f99c92d9127fbd
would work for you? I have not checked if that patch still applies, or
if the code has been replaced by the reference code...
I have not tested my use case for a while, that was making use of the
httpwebrequest.
