+Note that PieDemo.cs won't compile, since using Pie is invalid
+(there is no namespace Pie). There was already a bug filed about this
+problem with mcs, but miguel closed it: you may want to resume the bug.
+
+As for the Typeref issue: nested types typerefs are handled in a
+special way in the typeref table. First you have a typeref to the
+'enclosing' type and then a special typeref to the nested one or
+something like that. I need to find some info on this, since it's not
+actually described in the spec.
