+Hmm, this is interesting. As it turns out, we try to emulate csc's
+behaviour as far as possible so breaking that just to be ECMA
+compatible doesn't seem to quite make sense (since a lot of existing
+code will break when compiled with mcs).
+
+Let me assign this to myself for now although I am not sure if we
+should be fixing this. 
+
+Miguel, comments ?
