+Bug#: 79146
+Product: Mono: Runtime

+OS Details: 
+Status: NEW

+Summary: Generics support: null reference 
+
+The following program crashes the runtime with a null reference exception:
+
+using System;
+using System.Collections;
+using System.Collections.Generic;
+using System.Reflection;
+
+class D {
+    public static void Main ()
+    {
+        List<MemberInfo> a = new List<MemberInfo> (typeof (D).GetMethods ());
+    }
+}
+
+It is not possible to build this with gmcs right now, but it builds with
+csc, the CSC binary is available here:
+
+http://primates.ximian.com/~miguel/tmp/test3.exe
+
+The major issue right now is not the gmcs compilation bug (although that
+would be nice to fix), but the generic bits.  This is crashing the new
+Visual Basic compiler right now.
