           Summary: gmcs cannot find extension methods in referenced
                    assembly

sample solution exhibiting problem

Description of Problem:

I'm having problems compiling projects that reference extension methods in
external/referenced assemblies.  Extension methods that are internal to the
assembly work as expected.  The external extension methods cannot be resolved
by gmcs and thus causes compiler errors such as the following:

[Task:File=/home/bmurphy/src/ExtensionMethodsBug/Program.cs, Line=21,
Column=33, Type=Error, Priority=Normal, Description=Type
`Autofac.Builder.ContainerBuilder' does not contain a definition for `Register'
and no extension method `Register' of type `Autofac.Builder.ContainerBuilder'
could be found (are you missing a using directive or an assembly
reference?)(CS1061)]

Steps to reproduce the problem:
1. Download the attached project
2. Compile it in MonoDevelop

Additional Information:
This project compiles and executes successfully under Visual Studio 2008.  I'm
currently using mono 2.0rc1 and a trunk build of monodevelop to compile this
solution.
