It works for me using both mono_class_get_method_from_name ()
and mono_method_desc_search_in_class ().

Odds are that you're not using the correct MonoClass* (it must
System.Linq.Enumerable) or your desc is wrongly formatted.

The parameter's string descriptor is just

	"System.Collections.Generic.IEnumerable`1"

Notice the missing trailing <TSource>.
