 I've committed two tests for this in (System.Reflection.Emit) 
 TypeBuilderTest to cvs.
 
 I'll see whether I can find information on how the guid is generated 
 for types.

+This is very weird. If I do:
+
+cat t.cs
+class T {
+	static void Main () {
+		System.Console.WriteLine(typeof (T).GUID);
+	}
+}
+csc t.cs
+t
+del t.exe
+csc t.cs
+t
+
+I get the same output for both runs of `t'. In otherwords, this seems
+to stay the same for reach version. If I do:
+
+csc /out:tt.exe t.cs
+t
+
+I get a different GUID.
+
+So my guess is that this is some sort of hash of:
+- The assembly name
+- The class name
