Public bug reported:

The test MsgUtilsTests.EscapeControlCharsTest fails with [TestCase("\0",
"\\0")] when the framework is compiled under .NET but tested under Mono.
The test should be excluded under Mono but is not because a compile-time
condition is used.

This should be fixed in some way. Options are:

* Remove the test for all platforms
* Make it a separate test rather than a test case and use PlatformAttribute
* Add a Platform named parameter to TestCaseAttribute and use it.


It's possible that other compile-time tests for mono may cause the same problem.
