+Summary: ModuleBuilder.DefineType creates a type even if the type name is not unique
+
+Description of Problem:
+On Mono, ModuleBuilder.DefineType defines a type even if the type name is 
+not unique and the exception ArgumentException has been thrown, but on 
+MS.NET, the type is not defined when the exception has been thrown.
+
+Steps to reproduce the problem:
+    public static TypeBuilder DefineType(ModuleBuilder iModuleBuilder,Type 
+iParent,string iTypeName)
+    {
+      string      wTypeName    = iTypeName;
+      TypeBuilder wTypeBuilder = null;
+      uint        i            = 1;
+      // Make sure the type name is unique
+      while(wTypeBuilder == null)
+      {
+        try
+        {
+          wTypeBuilder = iModuleBuilder.DefineType(wTypeName,
+(TypeAttributes)TypeAttributes.Public|TypeAttributes.Class,iParent);
+        }
+        catch(ArgumentException)
+        {
+          // Type name not unique, construct a unique name for it
+          wTypeName = string.Concat(iTypeName,"__",i++.ToString());
+        }
+      }
+
+      return wTypeBuilder;
+    }
+
+  // In code, call DefineType method
+  DefineType(wMyModuleBuilder,"A.MyClass",typeof(Object));  // -> A.MyClass
+  DefineType(wMyModuleBuilder,"A.MyClass",typeof(Object));  // -> 
+A.MyClass__1
+
+Actual Results:
+In generated assembly, the types found are:
+- A.MyClass
+- A.MyClass
+- A.MyClass__1
+
+Expected Results:
+In generated assembly, the types found should have been:
+- A.MyClass
+- A.MyClass__1
+
+How often does this happen? 
+Always
