+Summary: Type.GetElementType() fails for byref arrays
+
+Description of Problem:
+
+Type.GetElementType() when called for a byref array type returns the type
+of the element of the array, and should return the array type (should
+return the referenced type).
+
+Steps to reproduce the problem:
+1. Run this test app:
+
+   using System;
+
+
+   public class Class1
+
+   {
+
+   	static void Main(string[] args)
+
+   	{
+
+   		Type t = Type.GetType("Class1[]&");
+
+   		Console.WriteLine (t.GetElementType());
+
+   	}
+
+   }
+
+Actual Results:
+
+Class1
+
+Expected Results:
+
+Class1[]
+
+How often does this happen? 
+
+Always
