+Summary: In the constructor of a partial class, only the using directives from the first translation unit are observed.
+
+Description of Problem:
+
+In the constructor of a partial class, only the using directives from the
+first translation unit are observed.
+
+Steps to reproduce the problem:
+1. Install Mono from CVS.
+2. Create Foo1.cs
+
+  partial class Foo
+  {
+  }
+
+3. Create Foo2.cs
+
+  using System;
+  
+  partial class Foo
+  {
+    public Foo () {
+      Console.Write("Hello, world.\n");
+    }
+    public static void Main ()
+    {
+    }
+  }
+
+4. Compile
+
+  mcs Foo1.cs Foo2.cs
+
+Actual Results:
+
+  Foo2.cs(7,5): error CS0103: The name `Console' does not exist in the
+current context
+  Compilation failed: 1 error(s), 0 warnings
+
+Expected Results:
+
+  Successful compilation.
+
+How often does this happen? 
+
+  Every time.
+
+Additional Information:
+
+  If Foo2.cs is compiled alone, it works as expected. If Foo2.cs is
+compiled _before_ Foo1.cs -- i.e. mcs Foo2.cs Foo1.cs -- it works as
+expected. (But, any using directives in Foo1.cs would also be ignored in
+the constructor.)
+
+  The using directives are _only_ ignored in the constructor. All other
+methods appear work as expected.
+
+  ATM my solution is to put all needed using directives where every partial
+declaration of a class can see it. This is tedious.
