 And say X.Foo.Y, will it allow that? The return value from X.Foo can 
 not be passed byref.

+I don't know about the reason for this, but CSC compiles this code 
+without a hitch in following two case, 1) if class A does not inherit 
+from MarshalByRefObject. OR, 2) if Point is a class instead of struct.
+So, the problem seems to be only with the testcase provided earlier 
+i.e. when we have a struct (value type) member in a 
+MarshalByRefObject class.
+
+To answer your question, following code gets compiled on CSC as well 
+as mcs without any problem,
+
+public struct X {
+   public static X Foo { get {return new X ();} }
+   public int Y { get { return y; }}
+   static int y = 0;
+}
+
+public class Test
+{
+   public static void Main ()
+   {
+      int ret = X.Foo.Y;
+   }
+}
