+This problem is bigger than just the type builders;
+
+we _ALWAYS_ return Guid.Empty for all Type.GUID calls (see MonoType.cs)
+
+Take this sample program:
+
+static void Main (string [] args) {
+Console.WriteLine (typeof(object).GUID);
+}
+
+MS.NET gives:
+81c5fe01-027c-3e1c-98d5-da9c9862aa21
+
+Mono gives:
+00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000
