+Summary: Enum to Object conversion
+
+Description of Problem:
+System.Enum is not properly converted to System.Object when working with 
+the parameters/arguments to resolve the overloads.
+
+The problem can be reproduced using the following source code:
+namespace ns1
+{
+	public class TheClass
+	{
+		public int GetNumericValue (System.Enum val)
+		{
+			int n = System.Convert.ToInt32(val);
+			return n;
+		}
+	}
+}
+
+System.Enum is not used as System.Object, so the compiler does not finds 
+a suitable System.Convert.ToInt32 with an Enum parameter and the 
+compilation fails.
