Well, the thing is with the fix that went into 2.6.30, some error path will never bit hit, or pretty much. Without the fix, what can happen is that a syscall incorrectly is interpreted as returning an error, thus triggering rarely used error path in Mono. However, that shouldn't lockup the whole machine :-) So It's still worth investigating what's happening when taking the fix out, as we may have another bug somewhere lurking.
