Here are a few pages that mention the syntax (search for "backtick")...

In the vs2005 beta 2 version of MSDN:

ms-help://MS.VSCC.v80/MS.MSDNQTR.v80.en/MS.MSDN.v80/MS.NETDEVFX.v20.en/cpref
/html/M_System_Type_GetNestedType_1_3b4e800a.htm

ms-help://MS.VSCC.v80/MS.MSDNQTR.v80.en/MS.MSDN.v80/MS.NETDEVFX.v20.en/cpref
/html/M_System_Type_GetNestedType_1_16219e3a.htm

Microsoft blog:

And if you search the net for "backtick generics", you'll find various other
non-Microsoft people discussing it.
