+Summary: mcs does not detect compilation error...
+
+Description of Problem:
+Following test program compiles with mcs but appropriate compilation error
+are given by csc on .NET. Line numbers are given for reference. See
+Additional Information for details on version of mcs, csc, etc...
+
+01: using System;
+02:
+03: namespace Understanding_Protected
+04: {
+05:     /// <summary>
+06:     /// Summary description for Test.
+07:     /// </summary>
+08:     class Test
+09:     {
+10:         protected const int SOME_CONST_VALUE = -1;
+11: 
+12:         /// <summary>
+13:         /// The main entry point for the application.
+14:         /// </summary>
+15:         [STAThread]
+16:         static void Main(string[] args)
+17:         {
+18:             //
+19:             // TODO: Add code to start application here
+20:             //
+21:         }
+22:     }
+23: 
+24:     public enum MyEnum
+25:     {
+26:         TYPE_UNKNOWN = Test.SOME_CONST_VALUE
+27:     }
+28: }
+
+Steps to reproduce the problem:
+1. compile the test code with mcs on Linux/Windows
+2. compile the test code with csc/VC.NET IDE on Windows
+
+
+Actual Results:
+If this is compiled using mcs on Linux or Windows XP, the compilation error
+goes undetected and the assembly is generated. It even runs properly.
+
+Expected Results:
+mcs should catch the compilation error. .NET C# compiler gives the
+following error message:
+Test.cs(26,18): error CS0122:
+'Understanding_Protected.Test.SOME_CONST_VALUE' is inaccessible due to its
+protection level
+
+How often does this happen? 
+Always
+
+Additional Information:
+mcs version 1.0.1.0 on Windows XP
+mcs version 1.1.1.0 on RH Linux
+.NET C# version 7.10.3052.4
