Kind of a test case to show how the compilation fails.

Description of Problem:

If you define an extension method for say string and you try to call that
method on a string which is part of a generic collection, it fails to compile
saying:

No overload for method 'MyExtension' takes 'N' arguments(CS1501)

Steps to reproduce the problem:
Try to compile the attached script. 

Actual Results:
Fails

Expected Results:
Compile with no errors

How often does this happen? 
Always

Additional Information:
