+Summary: System.Reflection.PropertyInfo.SetValue () breaks with nullable types
+
+Description of Problem:
+
+I get weird behavior when trying to assign to a nullable object property
+via system.reflection. The source builds fine, but at runtime I get the
+following error:
+
+** ERROR **: type 0x15 not handled in ves_icall_InternalInvoke
+aborting...
+
+That does not look like an exception, but more like a GLib failed assertion
+at some lower level... 
+
+
+This seems to happen in MS C# compiler as well, I found the following
+references:

+However, the solutions in those pages imply use Nullable.Wrap () and
+Nullabe.Unwrap (), AFAIK those do not exist in mono svn (checked oct 11 2005).
