Description of Problem:
ccs can compare a struct to null, mcs can't. 

Steps to reproduce the problem:
- unpack the archive
- open Frameworks.sln in Visual Studio (2010, use Frameworks08.sln for
VisStudio 2008)
- set config to 'debug/x86'
- build

- open Program.sln in Visual Studio, set config as above, build

- run Program.exe, you'll see

    evaluating == null
    Field operator == (Field,Field)
    evaluating != null
    Field operator != (Field,Field)
    Field operator == (Field,Field)
    Expected: 'True False', Observed: True False, SUCCESS

- build Program.sln with MonoDevelop
    (note, you'll get CS0472 on lines 12 & 14)
- run Program.exe

    evaluating == null
    evaluating != null
    Expected: 'True False', Observed: False True, FAILURE
