[Python.NET] .NET 2 and hang with AcquireLock

[Brian Lloyd]

Hi Matthew - 

This is a tough kind of problem to debug through email ;)

Is there any chance that the exceptions you raise cause any 
of your C# to be called again? 

If not, if there is any way you can distill your code to a 
relatively small example that demonstrates the problem, send 
it to me and I'll take a look.
