 But then you must first change to runtime so you won't emit .size 0
 .pack 0 for an AutoLayout struct, since that's no longer allowed on
 the latest .NET (or was it ever allowed?).

+The CLI spec says:
+
+"AutoLayout types shall not own any rows in the ClassLayout table"
+(the class layout table is the one that has pack and size)
+
+In the same section:
+
+"a class size of zero does not mean the class has zero size. it means,
+no size was specified at definition time. instead the actual size is
+calculated from the field types, taking account of pack size..."
+
+Whatever it takes, the constant *MUST* have a value of zero. It is
+mandated by the api.
