 Beg your pardon - this only happens when the module name ends with .dll
 
 e.g. mcs -r:mod.dll *.cs

+This bug is still present. I've done a bit of testing an concluded the
+following:
+
+When compiling to any target type using mcs and -reference, the
+compilation will fail when -reference targets a module assembly. Using
+a library with -reference compiles without a problem. Here is the
+output of the various test cases:
+
+Test one:
+---------
+agorecki at entro src $ mcs -target:module VersionString.cs
+agorecki at entro src $ mcs -target:library
+-reference:./VersionString.netmodule VersionSelection.cs
+
+** ERROR **: file metadata.c: line 914 (mono_metadata_decode_row):
+assertion failed: (res_size == count)
+aborting...
+Aborted
+
+
+Test Two:
+---------
+agorecki at entro src $ mcs -target:module VersionString.cs
+agorecki at entro src $ mcs -target:module
+-reference:./VersionString.netmodule VersionSelection.cs
+
+** ERROR **: file metadata.c: line 914 (mono_metadata_decode_row):
+assertion failed: (res_size == count)
+aborting...
+Aborted
+
+
+Test Three:
+-----------
+agorecki at entro src $ mcs -target:library VersionString.cs
+agorecki at entro src $ mcs -target:library
+-reference:./VersionString.dll VersionSelection.cs
+
+
+Test Four:
+----------
+agorecki at entro src $ mcs -target:library VersionString.cs
+agorecki at entro src $ mcs -target:module -reference:./VersionString.dll
+VersionSelection.cs
+
+
+Any thoughts?
