+Summary: Assembly linker: module out-of-order assembling failures
+
+The assembly linker is unable to link modules that are given out of their
+dependency order on the command line. Here is a test scenario to
+demonstrate this behavior:
+
+mcs -optimize -t:module -out:src/VersionString.nm src/VersionString.cs
+mcs -addmodule:src/VersionString.nm -optimize -t:module
+-out:src/VersionSelection.nm src/VersionSelection.cs
+al -t:library -out:Intran.System.dll src/VersionSelection.nm
+src/VersionString.nm
+
+Unhandled Exception: System.Reflection.TargetInvocationException: Exception
+has been thrown by the target of an invocation. --->
+System.BadImageFormatException: src/VersionString.nm
+in <0x00000> <unknown method>
+in (wrapper managed-to-native)
+System.Reflection.Emit.AssemblyBuilder:InternalAddModule (string)
+in <0x00022> System.Reflection.Emit.AssemblyBuilder:AddModule
+(System.String fileName)
+--snip--
+
+
+In this case, VersionSelection.nm references VersionString.nm. When the
+last command is rearranged as follows, the library is generated without error:
+al -t:library -out:Intran.System.dll src/VersionString.nm
+src/VersionSelection.nm
