+Summary: strings are magically turned into IntPtrSteams
+
+I have a struct that contains valid & regular strings, and at somepoint
+without the code doing anything the runtime seems to be reassigning the
+value to a System.IO.IntPtrStream.  
+
+I say the runtime because assigning this should cause an exception from
+regular code.  
+
+It seems refcount related since if I assign the value of the string to
+another varable soon after the struct is created, its value is never
+swapped for a System.IO.IntPtrStream.
