Hello,

do you have a test case for this ?

GetParentType() is supposed to return a MonoGenericClass, not a
MonoType; we have to ensure this in unmanaged land.  I'm about to commit
a patch to icall.c - maybe this'll fix your problem.  If not, please
send me a small test case so I can have a look at this.
