Summary:                    Invalid IL generated for generic cast from void
Description: 
The following code compiles and generates invalid IL (mono reports
"Unhandled Exception: System.InvalidProgramException: Invalid IL code in
A`1:F (): IL_0005: unbox.any").  A patch is attached which makes this a
compile error.

public class A['t]
{
    public F() : 't
    {
        CastVoid.G() :> 't
    }
}

public module CastVoid
{
    public G() : void
    {
    }

    public Main() : void
    {
        def a = A() : A[int];
        _ = a.F()
    }
}
