is it possible that this change didn't hit the anon cvs server?

I got the latest version and still have the problem.
I've looked in the mcs/class/corlib/System.Reflection/ChangeLog
and saw your comment from today:

<snip>

         * Assembly.cs: fixed bug #42833.
</snip>

I think this should mean bug #42883 because #42833 is something about 
evolution and isn't marked as fixed.

the main problem (beside the wrong changlog) is that it still throws  a 
System.TypeLoadException.

I saw in the code that it's looked if 't == null' and if true a 'return 
null' is done, but it seams that the exception comes from 
'GetType(typeName, false, ignoreCase)'.


if this is only a phaenomen of not updated anoncvs server, forgive me my 
impatience.

thank you

Dominik
