 Additional Information:
 
 The C# 2.0 spec might not yet been finalized, but I'd be suprised if it
 changed on this issue - you really shouldn't be allowed to use your own
 IEnumerator / IEnumerable interfaces (or even classes) for iterator method
 return types.

+This may have been broken in Mono 1.0 (broken in the sense that we did
+not report this error), but it's fixed in the meantime.
+
+The spec explicitly does *not* allow any types except IEnumerable,
+IEnumerator and their generic counterparts.  See 22.1.1/2 in your
+version (page 69) or 27.1.1/2 (page 424) of the latest working draft
+of the C# spec.
+
+This is not surprising, anything else would not make any sense at all.
