Just a correction.  It *is* possible to implement I1 and I2 at the same
time.  You just need to explicitly qualify the method implementations:

        interface I1 {void F();}
        interface I2 {int F();}

        class Test : I1, I2 {
          void I1.F() {
          }

          int I2.F() {
            return 42;
          }
        }

The above compiles properly on mcs.  (It should work with csc -- I've
done similar things before -- but I don't want to boot my Windows box
just to test this.)
