 The Reflection and Reflection.Emit API doesn't support modules, this
 was discussed a while ago on the mailing list. You can only create a
 multi-module assembly, but not a stand-alone module that you can add
 to an assembly built later.

+From miguel: 
+"Modules is definitely what you want to do."
+
+"We do not support modules today because Reflection.Emit does not 
+allow
+you to generate this code, but it is a TODO entry, we will be adding 
+an
+internal call to our runtime to allow this to happen (it is a dynamic
+call, so it will fall back to unsupported on .NET gracefully)."
