RSRP-99685 CLONE -seeing errors when referencing a GAC assembly, but project compiles OK

Issue is visible to: All Users

Product Version: 3.1.571.1
Product Edition: CSharp
Vs Version: 8.0

seeing errors when referencing a GAC assembly, but project compiles OK. I think resharper is having trouble interpreting the reference to the assembly (a local file ref, but dll is also in the GAC) and is showing the ref as missing (colored red).

I'm seeing this same behavior in 4.1.933.3 on Visual Studio 2008 Team System v9.0.30729.1 SP.

Here's a history of what happened.

Had ASP.NET MVC RC2 installed (and no Resharper has ever been on this machine).
developed a sample app with ASP.NET MVC RC2.
uninstalled ASP.NET MVC RC2 in preparation for installing ASP.NET MVC 1.0 (but never installed 1.0)
installed Resharper 4.1
tried to load the sample ASP.NET MVC app I had previously done. Got an error from VS2008 since the MVC stuff had been installed.
quit VS2008 and installed ASP.NET MVC 1.0

Now the sample app loads fine, but Resharper is complaining that it can't find "System.Web.Mvc". The assembly is loaded into the GAC and the app compiles and runs fine. I think Resharper needs to "rescan" the GAC (or something similar). Seems like it can find GAC-based assemblies installed after Resharper.
