[Mono-list] Certificate validation in HttpWebRequest

[Mat Arge]

Hy!

I do access some websites on HTTPS URLs using the HttpWebRequest class. To 
handle the certificates I set the  
System.Net.ServicePointManager.ServerCertificateValidationCallback to an 
implementation of mine. This worked fine, but recently (to be precise: since 
updating from mono-2.10 to 3.2.8) I get the old "System.Net.WebException: 
Error getting response stream (Write: The authentication or decryption has 
failed.)" error again. My callback is actually never called.

I found a hint on a MS page 
(http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/windowsapps/en-US/f5821194-4c40-48e7-976c-3dec8864ac59/servicepointmanagerservercertificatevalidationcallback?forum=winappswithcsharp) 
that appearently this is expected behaviour for Windows RT and Windows Store 
apps.
Has the behaviour of that callback been altered in mono? Is that a bug?

cheers
Mat
