+Summary: mcs v0.11 doesn't give arrormessage upon assignment of a readonly variable
+
+mcs v0.11 doesn't catch the error in line 28 of the following code.
+
+---------------------------------------
+
+using System;
+
+public class RightNow {
+    
+    // constructors
+    static RightNow() {
+        DateTime dt = DateTime.Now;
+        Year = dt.Year;
+        Month = dt.Month;
+        Date = dt.Day;
+        Hour = dt.Hour;
+        Minute = dt.Minute;
+        Second = dt.Second;
+    }
+    
+    public static readonly int Year;
+    public static readonly int Month;
+    public static readonly int Date;
+    public static readonly int Hour;
+    public static readonly int Minute;
+    public static readonly int Second;
+}
+
+public class Tester {
+    static void Main() {
+        Console.WriteLine("This year: {0}",
+            RightNow.Year.ToString());
+        RightNow.Year = 2006;
+        Console.WriteLine("This year: {0}",
+            RightNow.Year.ToString());
+    }
+}
+
+---------------------------------------------
+
+An assignment to a readonly variable should not be allowed.
