+Oops, yes. It was a duplicate of bug #75873. 
+
+Now I re-read ECMA-334, and I noticed that there is a difference in
+implicit conversion implementation for interfaces. It is denoted as:
+
+"From any interface-type S to any interface-type T, provided S is
+derived from T."
+http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/csspec/html/vclrfcsharpspec_6_1_4.asp
+
+So, I think it is mcs bug.
+
+The following code demonstrates the same problem:
+
+--------
+using System;
+
+public class Tset
+{
+        ICloneable c;
+        IComparable b;
+        public bool Foo () { return b == c; }
+}
+--------
+
+It compiles under MS.NET (1.1/2.0) and does not under Mono (mcs/gmcs).
