Consulting the spec as the last alternative? To be honest, it'll be a

I meant we prefer to use well tested third libraries rather than
manually parse the binaries by ourselves.

Right - yes, that's a laudable tactic.

Another alternative might be to look at the Mono compiler source code -
that will hopefully make it clear what belongs where.

We have made changes to the mono-cecil source code to achieve our
goal.

Right.

Note that if you sign your assemblies, all of this editing will
probably (hopefully, even) invalidate the signature - in which case the
suggestion at the top of this post is probably the only practical one.

We don't need to sign the assemblies.

That definitely makes it simpler.

I don't get the point. How can signing the assemblies would help us?
We can't change the homologation rules. It must be done by CRC as i've
explained.

No, the fact that the assemblies *aren't* signed makes it simpler.
