I may be able to give more information regarding this... :)
When trying to determine the screen size mono sends the cursor
to several locations (primarily to work around defective PC terminal
emulators), including significantly offscreen.
I can send the exact sequence if it would be of help.
(As a workaround you can add /n to the terminal type when connecting
to mono)
