+
+[BenM@x86-mono BenM]$ cat a.cs
+using System;
+ 
+class X : Attribute {
+        public X (object o) {}
+        [X (null)]
+        static void Main () {}

+
+[BenM@x86-mono BenM]$ mcs a.cs
+a.cs(5) warning CS8101: NullReferenceException while trying to create
+attribute.Something's wrong!
+Compilation succeeded - 1 warning(s)
+
+This is messed up in two ways. One, the exception was squashed and we
+compiled (it should be an error. I dont know why it was made into a
+warning...). Second, there should be no exception.
