HttpWebResponse and JIT on iOS

I am having JIT compiler issues with the following code on iOS. The code works in the editor (on a Mac), but not on an iOS device. I am using .NET 2.0, iOS 5.1, No stripping, and slow and safe calls. I have not installed any additional libraries.

 using UnityEngine;
 using System.Collections;
 using System.IO;
 using System.Security;
 using System.Security.Cryptography;
 using System.Security.Cryptography.X509Certificates;
 using System.Text;
 using System.Net;
 using System.Net.Security;

 void Start() {
   X509Certificate2 p12 = new X509Certificate2(p12FilePath, password);
   ServicePointManager.ServerCertificateValidationCallback = delegate { return true; }; //accept anything
 
   HttpWebRequest request = WebRequest.Create("https://www.example.com") as HttpWebRequest;
   request.ClientCertificates.Add(p12);
 
   HttpWebResponse response = request.GetResponse() as HttpWebResponse;
   print(response.StatusDescription);
   Stream dataStream = response.GetResponseStream ();
   StreamReader reader = new StreamReader (dataStream);
   string responseFromServer = reader.ReadToEnd ();
   print(responseFromServer);
 
   reader.Close();
   response.Close();
 }

What the code is doing:

1. Reading a p12 file off disk

2. Accepting home rolled certificates

3. Querying the secure website that requires a certificate to access

4. Printing the response.

The line where it all goes wrong is

 HttpWebResponse response = request.GetResponse() as HttpWebResponse;

giving the error

 ExecutionEngineException: Attempting to JIT compile method 'System.Reflection.MonoProperty:GetterAdapterFrame<Mono.Security.Protocol.Tls.HttpsClientStream, bool> (System.Reflection.MonoProperty/Getter`2<Mono.Security.Protocol.Tls.HttpsClientStream, bool>,object)' while running with --aot-only.

1. Is there any way to force the precompilation of this or other solutions to get around this issue on iOS?

2. Or can anyone recommend another networking solution that will allow me to do the same thing?

Thanks.
