[Mono-list] Class Property Initializer Question...

[Ryan Kirkpatrick]

When I compile and run the following code with Visual Studio, the output 
  is 'Blue/Green' and 'Red/Red'. When I compile and run the same code 
with Mono (2.4.2.x), the output is 'Blue/Green' and 'Blue/Green'. For 
some reason the initial values I am setting as part 'new' line are not 
being overwritten or worse just ignored. This does appear to be a 
compiler issue, since if I run the EXE generated by VS with Mono then I 
get 'Blue/Green' and 'Red/Red'. With gmcs I am simply compiling with 
'gmcs program.cs'. Is there something I am missing? Or did I find a bug? 
Thanks!

using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;

namespace ConsoleApplication2 {
     enum Colors { Red = 0, Green = 1, Blue = 2 };
     class Screen {
         public Colors fore = Colors.Blue;
         public Colors back;
         public Screen() { back = Colors.Green; }
     }

     class Program {
         static void Main(string[] args) {
             Screen a = new Screen();
             Console.WriteLine("{0} / {1}", a.fore, a.back);
             a = new Screen() { back = Colors.Red, fore = Colors.Red };
             Console.WriteLine("{0} / {1}", a.fore, a.back);
         }
     }
}
