+Summary: large interface crashes mcs
+
+Please fill in this template when reporting a bug, unless you know what you
+are doing.
+Description of Problem:
+
+compiling a class that inherits large interface (500 methods and events)
+crashes mcs
+
+The code is arranged into two different cs files, that are compiled into
+two different dll (one for the interface, one for the impl).  During the
+buildng of the implementation, the class that inherits the large interface
+causes mcs to crash.  If I remove the inheritance, it compiles.  If I
+remove all the methods from the interface, it compiles.  It compiles on csc.
+
+here's the stack dump.
+
+Unhandled Exception: System.NullReferenceException: Object reference not
+set to an instance of an object
+in <0x00000> <unknown method>
+in (wrapper managed-to-native) System.MonoType:GetMethodsByName

+
+
+Steps to reproduce the problem:
+
+I have tried with a 100 method + 10 event interface without it crashing,
+but I can't attach the large interface.

+
+
+1. 
+2. 
+3. 
+
+Actual Results:
+
+two compiled dlls
+
+Expected Results:
+
+crash
+
+How often does this happen? 
+
+repeatable with particular files.
+
+Additional Information:
+
+I will try to create a version that fails.
