It looks like there are a few things relating to MonoVTables:

* IN metadata/object.h there are #defines of mono_object_class and
mono_object_domain that look like

(((MonoObject*)(obj))->vtable->klass)

MonoVTable is now opaque so I don't think the second dereference will
work. (Haven't tested it but seems pretty clear-cut.)

* In general, there don't seem to be any accessors for MonoVTable
pointers; I ran into this trying to compile debugger/wrapper/wrapper.c
