+Summary: We do not report CS1577 when referencing an assembly without a strongname.
+
+Description of Problem:
+A strongnamed assembly can only reference other strongnamed assemblies.
+
+Steps to reproduce the problem:
+1. Create a new strongname file named strongname.snk
+   sn -k strongname.snk
+2. Compile a library that isn't strongnamed
+   mcs /target:library weaklib.cs
+3. Compile an application that is strongnamed and reference the library
+   mcs strongname.cs /r:weaklib.dll
+
+
+Actual Results (with mcs)
+Compilation succeeded
+
+Expected Results (with csc)
+error CS1577: Assembly generation failed -- Referenced assembly 'weklib'
+does not have a strong name.
+
+How often does this happen? 
+Always.
+
+Additional Information:
+- The fact that the application use, or not, AssemblyDelaySign(true)
+doesn't change the error.
+- If the library weaklib was strongnamed then compilation would succeed.
