+Summary: "using Foo = Bar; Foo[] a;" fails to compile
+
+For the following code, mcs (0.23.0.0, debianplanet package on woody) fails
+to compile. Microsoft's csc does compile it.
+
+The error given is "foo.cs(5) error CS0246: Cannot find type `Type[]'"
+
+-------------
+using Type = System.Int32;
+public class Foo {
+	public static void Main(string[] args) {
+		Type a; // works
+		Type[] b; // fails
+	}
+}
+-------------
+
+Additionally, "using Type2 = System.Int32[]" gives a parse error, but I
+haven't checked if this works in csc.
