+Summary: Confusing error message with a name conflict
+
+I have a class which inherits from Gtk.Bin and i have a class called 'Path'.
+
+public class Path
+{
+    static string Name = "Bob";
+}
+
+public class Test : Gtk.Bin
+{
+    public Test()
+    {
+        Console.WriteLine(Path.Name);
+    }
+}
+
+If i try to compile the above code i get a message saying 'object does not
+contain a definition for 'Name'. The reason is that gmcs sees the method
+first, notices that the method returns an object which does not have a
+property called 'Name' and then bails.
+
+Resolution:
+Maybe i should be warned that there's a conflict between a method and a
+class whose static members i'm trying to access.
