+The method "mono_get_object_from_blob" returns NULL also in the case
+when the default value is NULL (nullref). According to the specs, a
+nullref is encoded as a E_T_CLASS (in the constant table) and in the
+blob (04 00 00 00 00). So, to differentiate/a normal null being
+returned from this "default value of NULL" we can check if the type of
+the default val is MONO_TYPE_CLASS.
