+I was hoping to look into fixing this bug myself, but in order to 
+fix this bug I need to be able to determine the major, minor, build 
+and revision numbers that I should remap references too (meaning of 
+the current profile).
+
+When running on the 1.0 profile, references to 1.0.3300.0 System 
+assemblies need to be remapped to 1.0.5000.0, but when running on 
+the 2.0 profile then references to 1.0.3300.0 and 1.0.5000.0 need to 
+be remapped to 2.0.3600.0. And when the next .NET 2.0 beta or 
+release is supported, we'll also need to support remapping of 
+2.0.3600.0 system assemblies to that version.
+
+Until now remapping would only be done when the actual reference 
+could not be loaded, but in order to support remapping of 1.0 
+profile assemblies (1.0.5000.0) to 2.0 profile assemblies, we need 
+to perform remapping before the reference is loaded (as a reference 
+to a 1.0.5000.0 system assembly will succeed when running on the 2.0 
+profile, but you'd end up mixing 1.0.5000 and 2.0.3600.0 assemblies 
+which would lead to the results described above).
