 This is "by design" as well and not-a-bug. You can repro it
 w/out contexts.

+Thanks for good pointer and sorry for taking your time with not-a-bugs.
+
+I do not think it is related to beforefieldinit, as initializer should
+still be called before access.
+
+I think it has something to do with initializer dependency resolution,
+as changing order of static variables helped. Mono appears to run
+initializers in code order, even if there is a dependency. The
+following code writes 'true':
+
+
+class A { }
+
+class B
+{
+  public static A foo = goo;
+  public static A goo = new A ();
+}
+
+class C
+{
+  public static void Main ()
+  {
+    System.Console.WriteLine (B.foo == null);
+  }
+}
+
+I would expect some dependency resolution, but I am not sure about C#
+specification. Not reopening as I am not sure if this is a bug or feature.
