 Yeah, I know.  Thought this'd be a nice chance to learn the anonymous
 methods framework :-)

 Fixed in SVN with the big Iterators rewrite :-)

+We still generate invalid code in some cases. Eg:
+
+	using System;
+
+	public class Foo {
+
+		public static void Main ()
+		{
+			new Foo (new object[] { "foo" });
+		}
+
+		public Foo (object[] array) : this (array, array[0]) {}
+
+		public Foo (object[] array, object context)
+		{
+			if (array.GetType().IsArray)
+				Console.WriteLine ("ok! array is correct type");
+			else
+				Console.WriteLine ("boo! array is of type {0}", array.GetType ());
+
+			if (array[0] == context)
+				Console.WriteLine ("ok! array[0] == context!");
+			else
+				Console.WriteLine ("boo! array[0] != context!");
+
+			foreach (char ch in "123") {
+				DoSomething += delegate (object obj, EventArgs args) {
+					Console.WriteLine ("{0}:{1}:{2}", ch, array[0], context);
+				};
+			}
+		}
+
+		public event EventHandler DoSomething;
+	}
+
+Compiling this with mcs and running it gives:
+
+        boo! array is of type Foo+<>AnonHelp<1>
+        boo! array[0] != context!
+
+Compiling it with csc gives:
+
+        ok! array is correct type
+        ok! array[0] == context!
+
+Furthermore, if you remove the constructor chaining and change
+it to:
+
+		public Foo (object[] array)
+		{
+			object context = array[0];
+
+			if (array.GetType().IsArray)
+		...
+
+then mcs gets stuck in an infinite loop compiling it.
