 Actually, your use-case should probably be an error, even if B.dll is
 present.  IIRC, you need to reference each dependency of A.dll
 explicitly, i.e., you need -r:B.dll too.

+i dont think so. you only need to -r:B.dll if you consume types of
+B.dll in your _own_ code, i.e. it doesnt matter what references A.dll
+uses. beside that, the example compiles fine using ms csc (without
+specifying B.dll).
