Error trying to create OData connection to MS Dynamics CRM - "member names cannot be the same..."
I get the below error when I try to attach LINQPad to an OData source coming out of Microsoft Dynamics CRM. The odd bit is that it is peculiar to the entities that are defined in this instance of CRM - I connect to another instance regularly and have no problems. Unfortunately I don't have control over any of the field definitions. I can only consume this data. Any advice would be appreciated!

Here is the error window that pops up when I click the Test button in the connection definition dialog:
