[Mono-dev] Exception not carrying .Msg when thrown from IL called constructor.

Excuse the verbose subjectline :)

When investigating the necessary steps to get NInject to work on Mono, I 
found several failing tests.
One category of failing tests boil down to the following behaviour. It 
looks like a bug to me, but I could be wrong.
The attached repro program prints out "SomeImportantMessage" on the CLR, 
and prints out "" on mono.

It looks like the .Msg property of an exception thrown in a constructor 
is not available to a catchblock, if the constructor
was called trough dynamically generated IL.

If someone can confirm I'm not doing anything silly, and this is indeed 
a bug, I'll file a bugzilla on it.
I tested on 2.0 and svn trunk.

Bye, Lucas
