+Summary: mcs reports warning for missing doc comment on default ctor
+
+When a valid doc comment is present on both the Test class and the Main 
+method mcs still reports a warning :
+
+using System;
+
+/// <summary>
+/// whatever
+/// </summary>
+public class Test {
+        /// <summary>
+        /// whatever
+        /// </summary>
+        public static void Main() {
+        }
+}
+
+The output from mcs is:
+
+test.cs(6) warning CS1591: Missing XML comment for publicly visible type 
+or member 'Test.Test()'
+Compilation succeeded - 1 warning(s)
+
+Note that the warning also talks about the default ctor. In some way this 
+warning makes sense, ofcourse. But it does not match the behavior of csc.
+
+Note when the class is static, no warning is emitted (which is fine).
+
+This works fine using csc (both 1.x and 2.0).
