Once we'll have CI server test against Mono we'll discover the problem right away and don't check in anything that would be broken on Mono. I suggest we implement the workaround, file bugs into Mono and IronRuby bug trackers, and add a comment to the code with explanation and a link to the filed IronRuby bug. When the bug is fixed in Mono we go and remove the workaround to keep the code base clean.

How do we want to handle things that CAN be worked around in Mono before they're patched then? I agree that the same binaries should run in either location, but Mono necessarily is always playing catchup.
