Is this a mono bug?

[thegriff]

I have found a small problem which I am assuming is a bug in Mono - but I am not certain that is where the problem is. I can replicate it in a tiny .aspx file, and I have a workaround but I just want to be sure that mono is responsible. This code works fine ASP.NET / winXP / IE, does not work when loaded to x10hosting.
If I create a new .aspx file, and include a small javascript function containing the line:

var e_tag = "</" + tag + ">";

then mono (and not ASP.NET) throws an error whe you try to run it:

Server Error in '/' Application
 
Parser Error
 
Description: Error parsing a resource required to service this request. Review your source file and modify it to fix this error. 
Parser Error Message: expecting TAGNAME

Can anyone confirm this is a mono bug, in which case I will report it, if not then who should be told?

You would be better off asking directly at the mono project what is the status of this issue. They would provide the most up to date help.

Yes, probably. But since thier bug reporting procedure is such a PITA I figured better ask it here, where I first experienced it in case it was a known local problem rather than a mono one. Thanks anyway!
