In .NET 3.5 it seems that the behavior of CS1685 changed to be only a warning,
at least in the presence of the ExtensionMethodAttribute.

This attribute is used to flag that a method is an extension, it lives in
System.Core but apparently people that do not reference System.Core add this
attribute to their own assemblies typically preventing us from compiling their
code.

I sent a sample program to Marek Safar already with a solution that exhibits
the problem.
