+This is really a mcs bug, it should not compile that code, first,
+because it allows the use of sizeof without the /unsafe keyword
+and next because it allows the use of sizeof on a reference type (it
+should allow it only on valuetypes).
+The jit should either trow an exception or return sizeof(void*), though.
