+Summary: MCS does not know the difference between a `new' property and an `override' property
+
+Description of Problem:
+MCS is having trouble with the scoping of properties.
+
+Steps to reproduce the problem:using System;
+
+class A {
+	public int Prop {
+		get { Console.WriteLine (this.GetType ()); return 1; }
+		set { Console.WriteLine (this.GetType ()); }
+	}
+}
+
+class B : A {
+	public int Prop {
+		get { Console.WriteLine (this.GetType ()); return 1; }
+	}
+	
+	static void Main () {
+		B b = new B ();
+		b.Prop ++;
+	}
+}
+
+Actual Results:
+Successful compile
+
+Expected Results:
+It should not compile b.Prop is readonly.
+
+How often does this happen? 
+Always
+
+Additional Information:
+I am not sure how we can tell this from the Metadata, we are not given
+much. The PropertyInfo gives no way for us to tell the new case from the
+override case. I think we have to look *directly* at the MethodInfo.
