Summary:                    lack of checks when "implements" is used
Description: 
interface IDo {
  Do() : void;
}

class A : IDo {
  public //it's ok to be public
  //private //compiles, but shouldn't?
  //internal //compiles, fails PEVerify check
  Do() : void implements IDo.Do {
  }
}

Should be E: "method implementing interface member must be public and
nonstatic", for private and internal case.

The purpose of implements is to implement interfaces using private (limited
methods). The only case where it is invalid is static methods.

If internal fails to verify, then it is either bug/limitation of MS
verifier and we should maybe somehow workaround the problem.

I suspect this is because the method is also called Do. Could you try to
rename it?

Renamed it to Doo, no changes.
Don't know if it works on Mono, but for internal case compiled program
doesn't run on windows, gives:
 Unhandled Exception: System.TypeLoadException: Method 'Doo' in type 'A'
from assembly 'out, Version=0.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=null'
does not have an implementation.
   at Program.Main()

Also i've just tried protected: compiles, fails PEVerify, runs ok.

It's not a bug. We should close it.

It would be good to investigate and many report to MS as a bug. 

I guess we should try to prevent generating non-verifying programs
