I’ve been working on porting some of my code over to run under Mono and Linux. Yesterday, in the middle of a particularly scary class library, I started to encounter some strange behavior I hadn’t seen before. Cookies that should have been returning simply weren’t. After a little digging (and with the help of tcpdump) I was able to isolate it to a problem in the Mono runtime.

After several hours of hacking and debugging, I was able to file a bug report, including patches to solve the problem.

Who knows, maybe I’ll get to see my name in the Changelog. That would be kind of neat.
