//      * class.cs: Following the comment from 2002-09-26 to AddMethod, I
//      have fixed a remaining problem: not every AddXXXX was adding a
//      fully qualified name.  
//
//      Now everyone registers a fully qualified name in the DeclSpace as
//      being defined instead of the partial name.  
//
//      Downsides: we are slower than we need to be due to the excess
//      copies and the names being registered this way.  
//
//      The reason for this is that we currently depend (on the corlib
//      bootstrap for instance) that types are fully qualified, because
//      we dump all the types in the namespace, and we should really have
//      types inserted into the proper namespace, so we can only store the
//      basenames in the defined_names array.
