Description of Problem:

The mono S.R.E. API doesn't account for InternalCalls and PInvoke methods
that are generic. They are always treated as non-generic, but it seems
possible to have at least generic internal calls, like the ones introduced
here:
http://lists.ximian.com/pipermail/mono-patches/2005-November/067172.html

This makes the Nemerle compiler choke on these.

The following program demonstrates the problem:

#v+
using System;
using System.Reflection;

class C {
  public static void Main ()
  {
    MethodInfo ex = null;

    foreach (MethodInfo m in typeof(System.Threading.Interlocked).GetMethods())
                if (m.Name == "Exchange" && m.IsGenericMethodDefinition)
                        ex = m;

    Console.WriteLine ("{0} {1} {2}", ex, ex.IsGenericMethodDefinition,
ex.GetType());
        foreach (Type t in ex.GetGenericArguments ())
      Console.WriteLine ("  {0}", t);
  }
}
#v-

Actual Results:
null ref exception

Expected Results:
list of type parameters

How often does this happen? 
always

Additional Information:
mono svn trunk

Martin seem to have just fixed that in r53305.

I'm not sure I'm allowed to close it :)

Please don't close this bug: Martin's fix in svn is broken.
