This is completely thread-unsafe (the original code is, too, but the
race window is much smaller). Refcounts should be handled from C# code
(using Interlocked.Increment() etc).
As for the boxing overhead: it's probably possible to avoid it or we
might want to wait and fix it when generics is implemented.
