+Summary: null arg to custom attributes
+
+mcs compiles the following program, but csc doesn't and emits the following
+error:
+null-attr.cs(8,5): error CS0182: An attribute argument must be a constant
+expression, typeof expression or array creation expression
+
+== snip snip ==
+using System;
+
+class My :Attribute {
+	public My (object obj) {
+	}
+}
+
+[My(null)]
+class T {
+	static void Main() {}
+}
+
+If you add a constructor that takes a string, csc selects that
+and compilation succedes:
+	public My (string obj) {
+	}
