There are no known issues returning arrays from managed to unmanged
while embedding mono. Arrays are returned like MonoObjects and
their elements can be accessed with the usual mono_array_* accessors.

Structs are always returned as a boxed reference by mono_runtime_invoke,
so you must unbox them. Casting the result to a struct type is not
enough.

Please post a sample or file a bug if you think you've found an issue.
