           Summary: Assembly.GetType should result in FileLoadException
                    for missing dependent assembly in reflection-only
                    context

For an assembly that is loaded in reflection-only context, Assembly.GetType
should result in a FileLoadException when a dependent assembly cannot be loaded
/ found.

Note that Assembly.GetType should continue to return null when the assembly is
NOT loaded in reflection-only context.

To reproduce:
1. extract attached gzipped tar archive.
2. run 'make'.

Actual result:

** (test.exe:5348): WARNING **: Cannot resolve dependency to assembly 'A,
Versio
n=0.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=null' because it has not been
preload
ed. When using the ReflectionOnly APIs, dependent assemblies must be pre-loaded
or loaded on demand through the ReflectionOnlyAssemblyResolve event.

Unhandled Exception: System.Exception: #A1
  at Program.Main () [0x00000]
make: *** [all] Error 1

Expected result:

Nothing is written to stdout/stderr, and process exits with success code.
