Silverlight profile does not include a StructLayoutAttribute contructor that
accept a short. MCS depends on this constructor (typemanager.cs) and will error
out if the mscorlib.dll (we're compiling against) does not publicly export this
ctor.

The solution is to use the StructLayoutAttribute that accept a LayoutKind enum.


* at the moment Moonlight exports an extra, public ctor accepting a short - but
that (a) bad and (b) won't work when compiling against MS assemblies.
