 This only happens with the .NET runtime, it works fine with Mono.

+In my opinion, the problem is on the mono side.
+MCS can't correctly handle the actual attribute argument of type 
+System.Int32, because the formal type in the constructor is 
+System.Int64. 
+
+A a workaraound, the attribute could be created wiht a System.Int64 
+argument. In this case, the mcs compiler works ok.
+
+[TestAttribute(1L)]
+public class TestA {
+}
+
+BTW: The warning is misleading, because it has nothing to do with 
+MS.NET (it happens also on Linux, and there is no MS.NET at all).
