+Summary: runtime doesn't reference assemblies correctly
+
+to repro:
+- create two assemblies with the same name (eg, 'a.dll') containing 
+different types and place them in different directories 
+(eg, "./1/a.dll", "./2/a.dll").
+- now try to load and reflect the types in both assemblies.
+- the second assembly will never be loaded, it will just return a 
+reference to the first (see mono/mono/metadata/assembly.c, line 
+~393, "  /* avoid loading the same assembly twixe for now... */")
+
+here's the source for the test, I'll try to attach the whole test case:
+
+using System;
+using System.Reflection;
+using foo;
+
+namespace test
+{
+    class Test
+    {
+        public static void Main (string [] rgArgs)
+        {
+            Assembly asm1 = Assembly.LoadFrom ("1/a.dll");
+            Assembly asm2 = Assembly.LoadFrom ("2/a.dll");
+
+            Console.WriteLine ("asm1:");
+            foreach (Type t in asm1.GetTypes ())
+                Console.WriteLine (t.Name);
+
+            Console.WriteLine ("asm2:");
+            foreach (Type t in asm2.GetTypes ())
+                Console.WriteLine (t.Name);
+        }
+    }
+}
