There is a bug in the parser, in that it fails to accept input without a
trailing new line.
With the input:
class NoTrailingEOL {}
mcs.exe generates:
syntax error, expecting EOF ABSTRACT BOOL BYTE CHAR CLASS CONST DECIMAL
DELEGATE
DOUBLE ENUM EVENT EXPLICIT EXTERN FLOAT IMPLICIT INT INTERFACE INTERNAL
LONG NA
MESPACE NEW OBJECT OVERRIDE PRIVATE PROTECTED PUBLIC READONLY SBYTE
SEALED SHORT

Csc (framework v. 1.0.3328) accepts the program though.
