Well, now that you say it ... I am :-) .. There was a chicken-pox 
epidemic in college hostels and we had hoped that the exams would
be postponed ... but no such luck (for me or the sick guys).

Not in CreateProperty ... I got the .params for get_ and set_
methods ...

.method public hidebysig specialname instance int32 'get_Item'(int32 'x', class 
['mscorlib']'System'.'Object'[] 'args') cil managed 
{
.param[2]
.custom instance void ['mscorlib']'System'.'ParamArrayAttribute'::'.ctor'() = 
(01 00 00 00)

/tmp/tests/var.cs:25: no matching method for call

So I suppose it just needs a *little* change to GetItemParamType to 
correctly identify the params method...(viz use the signature of the
get_ or set_ methods instead of using the indexer sig for CSItemIsCandidate).

I had attached a patch to the original mail for that .... In case someone
wants to take it up for now.. I do not dare to go into Deep Hack mode :-)
