+Description of Problem: When appending data to an instance of StringBuilder
+it doesn't throw the required ArgumentOutOfRangeException when the capacity
+is exceeded.
+
+
+Steps to reproduce the problem:
+1. Create an instance of StringBuilder with a limited capacity.
+2. Append data till the capacity is exceeded.
+3. Wait for nothing to happen.
+
+Actual Results:
+Nothing happens.
+
+Expected Results:
+ArgumentOutOfRangeException should be thrown.
+
+How often does this happen? 
+Every time.
+
+Additional Information:
+The MSDN doco for the append method states that an
+ArgumentOutOfRangeException  will be thrown if:
+"Enlarging the value of this instance would exceed MaxCapacity."
