When I use the simple test case in your description,
I get the following error from cscc, which is what
I would expect:

click.cs:9: delegate expression is not compatible with `System.EventHandler'

I cannot build your EditWindow.cs example because it relies
upon classes that you did not supply (e.g. MForm).  Please
create a better test case and open a new bug if you are
still having problems.  But I am unable to replicate the
problem that was reported with the CVS version of pnet.

Sorry, the file I attached got fat fingered when I copied it over.  The line with an error should be...

tbox.Click += new EventHandler(testHandler);

If you add a handler for an event to a widget, and that handler has the wrong signature, the compiler blithely continues.

The eroneous code assigned to Click using += new EventHandler(handler),  but the signature of the handler is (object, PaintEventArgs)

When the program is run by ilrun, this message appears:  EditWindow::.ctor [2129] - call at verify_call.c:1089
Uncaught exception: System.Security.VerificationException: Could not verify the code
        at CqlJournal.EditWindow.Main(String[])

Code to produce this error:
TextBox tb = new TextBox();
tb.Click += new EventHandler(myHandler);
.
.
.
But, myHandler is not of type EventHandler.  The method that produced the error pasted above is:

private void myHandler(object obj, PaintEventArgs args)
{
...
}

file #978:  EditWindow.cs added by None (2.9KiB - application/octet-stream - file that demonstrates the problem. It isn't the simplest possible case, but I included it because (1) it produces the error I pasted and (2) I was feeling to lazy to make a separate test case file.)
