           Summary: Bad error message from gcs with incorrect code
           Product: Mono: Compilers
           Version: SVN
          Platform: Other
        OS/Version: Other
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Enhancement
          Priority: P5 - None
         Component: C#
        AssignedTo: mono-bugs at lists.ximian.com
        ReportedBy: rkvinge at novell.com
         QAContact: mono-bugs at lists.ximian.com

Repro:

class T {
        static void Main Main () {
            System.Collections.Generic.List <object> a = null;
        }
}

gmcs output:
rolf at linux:~/test/linq> gmcs test4.cs
test4.cs(2,29): error CS1519: Unexpected symbol `Main' in class, struct, or
interface member declaration
test4.cs(2,26): error CS1520: Class, struct, or interface method must have a
return type
test4.cs(3,45): error CS1525: Unexpected symbol `OP_GENERICS_LT_DECL'

csc output:
Y:\test\linq>csc test4.cs
test4.cs(2,19): error CS1002: ; expected

The issue is the third message gmcs outputs ("Unexpected symbol
`OP_GENERICS_LT_DECL'").

This is really a minor issue though given that the code is clearly wrong and
gmcs gives enough error information to find the problem quickly.
