+Summary: mcs doesn't typecheck assignments to primitives
+
+The mcs C# compiler doesn't seem to typecheck assignment to primitives, in
+most circumstances, at least on amd64.
+
+Steps to reproduce the problem:
+1. mcs -t:exe TypeCheck.cs -o TypeCheck.exe
+2. 
+3. 
+
+Actual Results:
+Compilation succeeds.
+
+Expected Results:
+Compilation should fail with a type error.
+
+How often does this happen? 
+Always.
+
+Additional Information:
+Seems to happen both with latest CVS (as of 10/13) and 1.1.1. I've only
+tested this on amd64, so it's possibly arch-specific.
