Just to make myself clear.

Running this example:


namespace hello {
        using System;
        using System.Diagnostics;
         
        public class hello 
        {
 
                public static void Main (string[] args)
                {
                        Process pt = new Process ();
                        pt.StartInfo.FileName="ls";
                        pt.StartInfo.UseShellExecute=false;
                        pt.Start ();
                }
        }
}

as user, shows nothing, but running it as root shows the contents of the
directory. It is just an example, I tried to see if it actually executes
the command, and it doesn't as user.

I tried all the versions of mono from 0.19 to 0.23 and none of them
worked.

Again: is this a bug or a new policy?
