[Mono-dev] Patch for some obscure cases in Dictionary

[Andreas Nahr]

While trying to optimize the k-nucleotide benchmark from Computer Language
Shootout (or whatever) I stumbled across a corner case in Dictionary.
Situation is: We are behaving different from MS.Net and current Mono
behavior is somewhat illogical. But the case itself is surely outside of the
spec ;)
We are changing the indexer itself in the indexer (base problem, concrete is
a bit more complex).

Anyways this could be patched (it's slightly faster, too).

Happy Hacking

P.S. Am attaching the benchmark application and the input for it (< at
console)

P.P.S. I AM aware that doing stuff this way is asking for trouble ;)
