The workaround seems to be that you can cast your anonymous delegate as
follows:

class MainClass
    {
        delegate string SomeDelegate();

        public static void Main(string[] args)
        {
            Dictionary<string, SomeDelegate> dictionary = new
Dictionary<string, SomeDelegate> ();
                        dictionary ["TEST"] = (SomeDelegate)delegate { return
"In the delegate!"; };

            // See if the delegate is invoked
            SomeDelegate someDelegate;
            bool result = dictionary.TryGetValue ("TEST", out someDelegate);
            Console.WriteLine("Was it found? " + result);
            Console.WriteLine("Result = " + someDelegate());
        }

This will also fix bug https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=369538
causing issues in MonoDevelop.
