+Summary: NullReferenceException compiling sealed class with protected members
+
+When compiling a sealed class with protected members using warning level 4,
+a NullReferenceException is thrown.
+
+To reproduce this issue, compile the following code fragment with warning
+level 4 (eg. mcs /target:library /warn:4 test.cs) :
+
+public sealed class A {
+        protected void Test() {
+        }
+}
+
+When running again CVS HEAD on linux and Mono 1.0.1 on Windows, I get the
+following stack trace :
+
+Unhandled Exception: System.NullReferenceException: Object reference not
+set to an instance of an object
+in <0x0003a> Mono.CSharp.Method:GetSignatureForError
+(Mono.CSharp.TypeContainer)in <0x000d9> Mono.CSharp.MemberBase:CheckBase ()
+in <0x0001f> Mono.CSharp.MethodCore:CheckBase ()
+in <0x0003d> Mono.CSharp.Method:Define ()
+in <0x00085> MemberCoreArrayList:DefineContainerMembers ()
+in <0x00011> MethodArrayList:DefineContainerMembers ()
+in <0x00534> Mono.CSharp.TypeContainer:DoDefineMembers ()
+in <0x0002a> Mono.CSharp.TypeContainer:DefineMembers
+(Mono.CSharp.TypeContainer)in <0x002a9>
+Mono.CSharp.RootContext:PopulateTypes ()
+in <0x00bbf> Mono.CSharp.Driver:MainDriver (string[])
+in <0x0000f> Mono.CSharp.Driver:Main (string[])
+
+The strange thing here is that I cannot reproduce it using mono-1.0 branch
+(built from cvs) on linux, but I can reproduce it using mono/mcs 1.0.1 on
+Windows ...
+
+Even more strange is that, using mono/mcs 1.0.1 on Windows, I even get the
+exception using the default warning level (which is 2 for mcs).
