I think this issue also causes this:
https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=354759

basically, currently we inflate MethodBuilder's which might not be finished
yet so the inflated methods end up having no code in them. I agree we should
fix this the proper way since it causes us to add a never ending series of
hacks
to the runtime.

A problem we currently have is that gmcs depends on calling GetMethods () etc.
on MonoGenericClass (which is called TypeBuilderInstantiation on MS, a much
better name), while MS returns NotImplementedException on them. So we either
have to:
- keep the current code for inflating methods
- inflate the methods the first time GetMethods () is called, which will
  only happen with gmcs
- instead of inflating the methods, create a MethodBuilderInstantiation class
or
  similar, and make GetMethods () return an array of these.
