+Reopening this.
+
+Although the fix is correct Dbus-sharp in the wild depends on the old
+behavior, which means that rolling out this Mono before all the
+applications that bundled it would break them all.
+
+Am going to reopen this bug, wait for the apps to be released, updated
+and packaged and then apply this to the Mono release.  Perhaps Mono
+1.2.5 or 1.2.6 timeframe.
+
+r74195 contains a test for this problem, when re-enabling this code,
+re-enable the test in trunk/mcs/class/corlib/Test/System/TypeTest.cs
