Description of Problem:

When running the code below on Windows:

static void Main(string[] args)
{
  var ad = AppDomain.CurrentDomain;
  var da = ad.DefineDynamicAssembly(new AssemblyName("foo.dll"),
System.Reflection.Emit.AssemblyBuilderAccess.Run);
  var dm = da.DefineDynamicModule("foo", true);
}

It fails with:

Unhandled Exception: System.ExecutionEngineException: The assembly for default
symbol writer cannot be loaded
  at
System.Reflection.Emit.ModuleBuilder..ctor(System.Reflection.Emit.AssemblyBuilder
assb, System.String name, System.String fullyqname, Boolean emitSymbolInfo,
Boolean transient) [0x00000] in <filename unknown>:0
  at System.Reflection.Emit.AssemblyBuilder.DefineDynamicModule (System.String
name, System.String fileName, Boolean emitSymbolInfo, Boolean transient)
[0x00000] in <filename unknown>:0
  at System.Reflection.Emit.AssemblyBuilder.DefineDynamicModule (System.String
name, Boolean emitSymbolInfo) [0x00000] in <filename unknown>:0
  at SymbolWriterBug.Program.Main (System.String[] args) [0x00000] in <filename
unknown>:0


How often does this happen? 

On Windows, all the time.

Additional Information:

Works correctly on Linux.
