[Python.NET] issue disambiguating overloaded method UPDATE

[BCline]

from System import String, Char, Int32
def TestCharArray():
     from System import Array
     charArrType = Array[Char]
     ##arrType = charArrType('hello')
     ##for char in arrType:
     ##    print char,
     ## Also works on instances of the type! ##
     strCharArr = String.__overloads__[charArrType]
     s = strCharArr(list('hello'))
     print s
TestCharArray()
