Updated log of pinvoke2.exe crash with debug print output

This trace shows that the struct passed from mono_allocate_stack_slots_full
down to mono_class_init is not a MonoClass but is instead a MonoGenericClass.
This seems like a problem as MonoGenericClass is much shorted then MonoClass
and does not contain a parent field. This implies that mono_class_init is
following a bogus pointer when it executes:

        if (class->parent && !class->parent->inited) {
                mono_class_init (class->parent);
                }

This MonoGenericClass pointer is being stored in inst->inst_vtype by
mono_compile_create_var_for_vreg(), which is really odd since the value is a
parameter of type struct MonoType. MonoType is also different in shape and size
from either MonoClass or MonoGenericClass.

I must be very confused ...
