+Summary: CS0252/CS0253 are not reported when performing reference comparison
+
+Mcs currently does not report CS0252/CS0253 when comparing a string with 
+an object.
+
+To reproduce this issue, compile the following code snippet:
+
+using System;
+
+class X {
+	static void Main() {
+		object a = "11";
+		Console.WriteLine("11" == a);
+		Console.WriteLine(a == "11");
+	}
+}
+
+Expected result:
+
+test.cs(6,21): warning CS0253: Possible unintended reference comparison; 
+to get a value comparison, cast the right hand side to type 'string'
+test.cs(7,21): warning CS0252: Possible unintended reference comparison; 
+to get a value comparison, cast the left hand side to type 'string'
+
+Actual result:
+
+No warnings.
