+Summary: StructLayout size attribute not handled properly
+
+When I declare a structure to be larger than its fields, it appears to add 
+the field sizes to the size attribute instead of taking the size as an 
+absolute. I am declaring my structure to be 64 bytes larger than the 
+fields because I want to read in a 64 byte string from a socket, and I am 
+using the structure size to determine how many bytes to read... and it 
+works fine under VS.Net.
+
+[StructLayout(LayoutKind.Sequential, Pack=1, Size=71, 
+CharSet=CharSet.Ansi)]
+public struct DeviceResp
+{
+  public ushort subtype;
+  public ushort code;
+  public ushort index;
+  public byte access;
+};
