+Summary: mcs isn't strict enough with CS0246
+
+Description of Problem:
+
+mcs compiles code with invalid ( incomplete) using statements that fails
+with csc.exe.
+
+Steps to reproduce the problem:
+
+using System;
+
+class foo {
+    static void Main(string[] args ) {    
+        Reflection.ConstructorInfo ci;        
+    }
+} 
+
+Actual Results:
+compiles correctly with mcs. It looks like its combining System and
+Reflection to implicitly import "System.Reflection". With csc.exe its
+necessary to explicitly import the namespace with :
+using System.Reflection;
+
+Expected Results:
+this is the output from csc.exe
+test.cs(4,9): error CS0246: The type or namespace name 'Reflection' could
+not be
+        found (are you missing a using directive or an assembly reference?)
+
+
+How often does this happen? 
+consistently
