+Summary: System.Reflection.ModuleBuilder.GetType fails to find types with certain names
+
+Description of Problem:
+ModuleBuilder.GetType() returns null when asked for a type returned by
+ModuleBuilder.GetTypes(). This seems to happen only when the type name
+contains special characters like '*'. In CLR it works OK (although it adds
+a backslash before the asterisk).
+
+
+Steps to reproduce the problem:
+	AssemblyBuilder ab = AppDomain.CurrentDomain.DefineDynamicAssembly(new
+AssemblyName("test"), AssemblyBuilderAccess.Run);
+	ModuleBuilder mb = ab.DefineDynamicModule("module");
+	TypeBuilder tb = mb.DefineType("<*0>.<Global>");
+	Type type = tb.CreateType();
+
+	foreach (Type t in type.Module.GetTypes())
+	{
+		Console.WriteLine(t.FullName);
+	}
+
+	Console.WriteLine("Searching for '{0}'", type.FullName);
+	type = type.Module.GetType(type.FullName);
+	if (type != null)
+	{
+		Console.WriteLine("Got it");
+	}
+
+
+Actual Results:
+<*0>.<Global>
+Searching for '<*0>.<Global>'
+
+Expected Results:
+<*0>.<Global>
+Searching for '<*0>.<Global>'
+Got it
