I'm back in the office so decided to give this another go.  The
problem is, it appears to keep attempting to load a particular
assembly, resulting in a stackoverflowexception. The method
Assembly.load_from(path) never appears to return.

I've tried to put a (if already saw then don't load) but I get an
error "Expected System.Reflection.Assembly, got System.Dynamic.Null"
This is because i do return nil, but i'm sure that's what I did in C#.

This works in IronPython, but I can't find the code where its
implemented within the codebase :(

Anyone for any ideas on this?

Thanks

Ben
