[IronPython] FunctionEnvironment16Dictionary problems with IronPythonStudio

[Curt Hagenlocher]

Unfortunately, it's currently much easier to use C# (or "native CLS") code
from within IronPython than it is to use IronPython from within C#.  To do
this properly, you'll generally need to use the hosting interfaces -- and
they've changed pretty dramatically between 1.1 and 2.0, so you'll also need
to decide which of the two you're targeting.

There's some information about the hosting interfaces at the IronPython
Cookbook: http://www.ironpython.info/index.php/Main_Page

The simplest way to call IronPython from C# today is to define an interface
from C# and to have your Python class derive from it.  But you'd still have
the issue of being able to instantiate the object.
