+Summary: Attribute.IsDefined returns true when it shouldn't
+
+Description of Problem:
+I've defined a custom Attribute and marked it non-inheritable.
+When querying this Attribute via Attribute.IsDefined(Type,Type) on a type
+that doesn't have defined the attribute but its parent class has, it
+returns true while it shouldn't.
+
+Steps to reproduce the problem:
+1. Compile & Run the following C#-code
+-------------------------------------------------------------------
+using System;
+
+[System.AttributeUsage(
+        System.AttributeTargets.Class |
+        System.AttributeTargets.Struct,
+        AllowMultiple = false,
+        Inherited = false) ]
+public class MyAttribute : Attribute {}
+
+[MyAttribute]
+public class Parent {}
+
+public class Child : Parent {}
+
+public class Test {
+
+    public static void Main ()
+    {
+        Console.WriteLine (Attribute.IsDefined(typeof(Child),
+typeof(MyAttribute)));
+    }
+}
+------------------------------------------------------------------
+Actual Results:
+true
+
+Expected Results:
+false
+
+How often does this happen? 
+Always
+
+Additional Information:
+I got the true-result running the above code on my debian-mono 1.2.4
+and the false-result running it on .Net.
