+Summary: Accessing a protected member yields error CS1540 instead of CS0122
+
+Description of Problem:
+Accessing a protected (non-static) member of class A in class B yields error CS1540, while the 
+MS C# compiler yields CS0122.
+
+Steps to reproduce the problem:
+1. Access a non-static protected member of one class in another
+2. Compile the classes
+
+Actual Results:
+B.cs(7) error CS1540: Cannot access protected member `A.x' via a qualifier of type `A'; the 
+qualifier must be of type `B' (or derived from it)
+A.cs(3): 'A.x' (name of symbol related to previous error
+Compilation failed: 1 error(s), 0 warnings
+
+Expected Results:
+B.cs(7) error CS0122: 'A.x' is inaccessible due to its protection level
+
+How often does this happen? 
+Always
+
+Additional Information:
+This seems to be closely related to bug 28607: http://bugzilla.ximian.com/show_bug.cgi?
