[Mono-list] Bugs in MS documentation

I'm working on Microsoft.VisualBasic.Strings, and I found many places where
the documentation does not match the behaviour of MS's implementation.
For instance, some methods throw exceptions that do not reference the real
problem (example: Split fails with AritmethicException if Limit is < -1;
ArgumentOutOfRangeException would be better)
Should I base myself on the docs, or it would be better to stick to the
"reference implementation"?

Besides, Jaime's tutorial talks about mcs/class/doc/API-notes. As I don't
have write access to the cvs tree, should I forward these to the list?
