+Summary: castclass doesn't allow casting enum[] to underlying type
+
+As posted by "Jeroen Frijters" <jeroen@sumatra.nl> on mono-list:
+The following code throws a System.InvalidCastException:
+
+enum MyEnum : int {}
+
+class Bug
+{
+  public static void Main()
+  {
+    int[] a1 = (int[])(object)new MyEnum[1];
+    MyEnum[] a2 = (MyEnum[])(object)new MyEnum[1];
+  }
+}
+
+Partition III section 4.3 (castclass) explicitly allows this conversion.
