We have an application that uses both telerik winforms controls (Q2 2011) and telerik reporting (Q1 2011) that is deployed using ILMerge to create a single exe.  The application works fine in debug, release, and deployed VIA a setup program.  However, the exe created by ILMerge generates the following error when I try to render a report or display the report in the winforms report viewer:

System.ArgumentException: Extension of type 'Telerik.ReportConverter.ActiveReports.ActiveReportsConverter' does not have name specified.
   at Telerik.Reporting.Processing.ExtensionInfo.AssertValidName()

There doesn't seem to be any other issues as I have added "Telerik.WinControls.RadTypeResolver.Instance.ResolveTypesInCurrentAssembly = True" when the first form is initialized.

Does telerik reporting (any version) support ILMerge distribution? 

If so, I have added Telerik.ReportViewer.Winforms.dll and Telerik.Reporting.dll to our ILMerge script but are there any other dependent files for telerik reporting?
