+Summary: Variables declared in foreach are read-only
+
+Variables declared in foreach (int var in xxxx) are read-only variables
+inside the loop and mcs is not enforcing this.
+
+This is the test case:
+
+using System;
+
+public class MyTest {
+        public static void Main (string [] args)
+        {
+                int [] arr = new int [1000000];
+                int i, k;
+
+                for (k = 0; k < 100; k++){
+                        foreach (int b in arr){
+                                b = i++;
+                        }
+                }
+        }
+}
+
+Trying to compile it with csc says:
+foreach.cs(11,5): error CS1604: Cannot assign to 'b' because it is read-only
+
+And with mcs it compiles without any warning or error.
