+Summary: Enum.ToObject() does not accept enum values
+
+using System;
+
+enum X { A, B };
+enum Y { C, D };
+
+class Test {
+	public static void Main () {
+		object o = Enum.ToObject (typeof (Y), X.A);
+	}
+}
+
+
+This causes an ArgumentException from an assertion in 
+ves_icall_System_Enum_ToObject:
+
+Unhandled exception System.ArgumentException assertion `obj->vtable->klass-
+>byval_arg.type >= MONO_TYPE_I1 && obj->vtable->klass->byval_arg.type <= 
+MONO_TYPE_U8' failed.
+#0: 0x00000            in System.Enum::ToObject ([00BB2B90] [00BB2B30] )
+#1: 0x00010 call       in .Test::Main ()
+
+While the MS runtime accepts both boxed integrals and boxed enums.
