Details:

.NET (both 1.1 and 2.0) and Mono allow mutation of initonly fields via
reflection in violation of the ECMA CLI specification.

I've created an IL_CONFIG_ECMA option in the pnet module (thanks Klaus) and
added it as a part of all existing profiles.

However I haven't added a profile that uses IL_CONFIG_ECMA=n and hence allows
mutation of such fields.
