+Mono thread suspension
+----------------------
+
+On Linux and macOS, Mono's cooperative/hybrid thread suspension can hang
+when Python and managed threads interact. If affected, set
+``MONO_THREADS_SUSPEND=preemptive`` before starting the process, as described
+in `mono/mono#21466 <https://github.com/mono/mono/issues/21466>`_.
+CI uses this workaround for both embedding and Python-hosted tests.

+To run the Mono Python tests with per-test output and a Python thread
+stack dump if a test takes longer than 60 seconds::
