+Summary: EventInfo.GetAddMethod() and GetRemoveMethod() need implementing
+
+The build of gtk# is now dying with the following error from mcs:
+
+** (process:18995): WARNING **: unhandled exception
+System.NullReferenceException: "A null value was found where an object
+instance was required"
+in 0x00075 Mono.CSharp.EventExpr:.ctor
+(System.Reflection.EventInfo,Mono.CSharp.Location)
+in 0x00095 Mono.CSharp.Expression:ExprClassFromMemberInfo
+(Mono.CSharp.EmitContext,System.Reflection.MemberInfo,Mono.CSharp.Location)
+in 0x0015d Mono.CSharp.Expression:MemberLookup
+(Mono.CSharp.EmitContext,System.Type,string,System.Reflection.MemberTypes,System.Reflection.BindingFlags,Mono.CSharp.Location)
+[ ... ]
+
+In mcs/ecore.cs, EventExpr's constructor:
+
+    add_accessor = TypeManager.GetAddMethod (ei);
+    remove_accessor = TypeManager.GetRemoveMethod (ei);
+                        
+    if (add_accessor.IsStatic || remove_accessor.IsStatic)
+        IsStatic = true;
+
+which is raising the NullReferenceException, because in
+class/corlib/System.Reflection/EventInfo.cs:
+
+    public MethodInfo GetAddMethod() {
+        return null;
+    }
+    public abstract MethodInfo GetAddMethod(bool nonPublic);
+    public MethodInfo GetRaiseMethod() {
+        return null;
+    }
+    public abstract MethodInfo GetRaiseMethod( bool nonPublic);
+    public MethodInfo GetRemoveMethod() {
+        return null;
+    }
