Mono XSP ignores <location> directive in Web.Config

Question

I'm porting my ASP.NET application to Mono. I built it from SVN trunk under Debian 5.0.

I allow anonymous access to Logout.aspx and styles.css using Web.config directives:

<location path="Logout.aspx">
    <system.web>
        <authorization>
            <allow users="*" />
        </authorization>
    </system.web>
</location>
<location path="styles.css">
    <system.web>
        <authorization>
            <allow users="*" />
        </authorization>
    </system.web>
</location>

It works fine under Visual Studio Web Server, IIS6 and IIS7 but doesn't under XSP2 2.5.0.0. Are there any workarounds or ways to do the same task but differently?

I mean doesn't work - requesting redirects to Login.aspx

The bug seems to have been fixed on the 9th of jan. See the details in mono's bugzilla

Unfortunately it does not seem to work on (sub)directories, so css and js directories are still not accessible after logging in.
