+Summary: Delegate.CreateDelegate(Type,Type,string) does not work
+
+The following code should create a delegate for the static methos
+Sting.Equals(string,string). Instead, it throws a NullReferenceException in 
+System.Delegate:CreateDelegate_internal
+
+namespace T1 {
+  using System;
+  public class T {
+    delegate bool Comparator (string s1, string s2);
+    public static void Main (string[] args)
+    {
+      Type dt = typeof (Comparator);
+      Type ct = typeof (String);
+      Console.WriteLine ("{0} {1}", dt, ct);
+      Delegate d = Delegate.CreateDelegate (dt, ct, "Equals");
+      Console.WriteLine ("{0}", d);
+      }
+    }
+}
+
+results in:
+T1.T+Comparator System.String
+
+Unhandled Exception: System.NullReferenceException: A null value was found
+where an object instance was required
+in (unmanaged) 06 System.Delegate:CreateDelegate_internal
+(System.Type,object,System.Reflection.MethodInfo)
+in <0x00004> 06 System.Delegate:CreateDelegate_internal
