Well, 
First of all, it is a good test of swigsharp.
Second the pnivoke is the standard generated code for swig,
Once it works, I will work on making them internalcalls.

Thirdly, It documents the internals of the pnet as c#

Fourthly I can then make pnet run inside of Perl, Ruby, Java, etc as a
module. Then I can remove the IL Parser from the ILStubberAuto and just
read the ILImage directly into perl.
