Thanks guys. Appreciate the (detailed) response. Actually, this explains quite a bit. I've run into times sporadically where i'd be using the mangled name and it wouldn't be recognized and had no ready explanation for it.
Is there a specific reason that two letter words arent mangled? (I was looking in the comments of RubyUtils.cs but didn't find anything :-P ).
