+Summary: Type definitions are being looked up differently than member access
+
+Description of Problem:
+mcs doesn't allow conversion of an enum in another namespace (used with an 
+alias) to converted to another enum type. This works with csc.
+
+Steps to reproduce the problem:
+1. Try to compile both files together.
+
+Actual Results:
+nf-test2.cs(29) error CS0029: Cannot convert implicitly from `T+Mat' to 
+`ABC.BMT'
+
+Expected Results:
+Compile without error.
+
+How often does this happen? 
+Always

+The bug above is actually a lookup bug: the above sample in CSC
+never references the enumeration in the second file, while in MCS we
+do, so the problem is that we have two different types involved.
+
+CSC only sees one.
+
+Here is a sample 1-file reproduction
+
+using System;
+using Mat = ABC.BMT;
+
+namespace ABC
+{
+        public enum BMT
+        {
+                X,
+        }
+}
+
+class T {
+        private enum Mat
+        {
+                A,
+                B
+        }
+
+        public static void Main() {
+                Mat c;
+                c = Mat.A;
+        }
+}
