[mono-android] Strange InvalidCastException

[uh]

Hello,

I receive a InvalidCastException, that I cannot understand in the following
codes:

try
{
	Android.Runtime.JavaList<Dictionary&lt;String, object>> jl = new
Android.Runtime.JavaList<Dictionary&lt;String, object>>();
	Dictionary<String, object> v = new Dictionary<String, object>();
	v.Add("szLongName", "Bla.pdf");
	jl.Add(v);     // Exception
}
catch(Exception ex)
{
}

Exception:

Cannot cast from source type to destination type.

	Dictionary<String, object> vo = (Dictionary<String, object>)jl[0];   //

}
catch(Exception ex)
{

I cannot understand, what the problem is. Source and Destination types are
exactly identical.
