 If this isn't a bug, shouldn't there be a posibility to access the 
 public fields of a struct, if [StructLayout (LayoutKind.Sequential)] 
 isn't set, anyway?
 Or is there a posibility to use mono_object_unbox without LayoutKind.
 Sequential?

+NB: if you want to access fields from unmanaged, using a sequential
+type is the best way to do it. That way you can access stuff with ->
+in C, which is much cleaner than method calls.
