+Summary: mcs does not report error CS0663 properly.
+
+Description of Problem:
+.NET docs say "it is not possible to define an overload that only differs 
+by ref and out.... 
+the following overload declarations are invalid:
+class MyClass 
+{
+   public void MyMethod(out int i) {i = 10;}
+   public void MyMethod(ref int i) {i = 10;}
+}"
+
+Steps to reproduce the problem:
+1. Try to compile following code using mcs and csc.
+
+// code
+using System;
+public class Test {
+
+	public static void Main () {
+
+	int x = 10;
+	
+	do_something (ref x);
+	do_something (out x);
+	do_something (x);
+	}
+	
+	static void do_something (ref int i) {
+		Console.WriteLine ("ref i: " + i);
+		i = 13;
+	}
+	
+	static void do_something (int i) {
+			Console.WriteLine ("i: " + i);
+	}
+	
+	static void do_something (out int i) {
+			Console.WriteLine ("out i: " + i);
+			i = 12;
+	}
+
+//	static void do_something (out int i) {
+//			Console.WriteLine ("out i: " + i);
+//			i = 12;
+//	}
+
+}
+// code
+
+Actual Results:
+mcs reports following error,
+error CS0111: Class 'Bug' already defines a member called 'do_something' 
+with the same parameter types
+
+Expected Results:
+csc reports following error,
+error CS0663: 'do_something' cannot define overloaded methods which differ 
+only on ref and out
+
+How often does this happen? 
+Always
+
+Additional Information:
+csc reports CS0111 when we have a exact duplicate copy of a method.
