I'm still confused ...

TestCase is for test code written in C#, not C.  So it won't be possible to 
integrate "code based on IL_Thread.h and lib_defs.h" into the C# test suite.

I doubt that it is even possible to write a C# test case for "FinalizeThread", 
given that it only fires during object finalization and it is impossible to 
force predictable finalization of an object.  You had to pick a hard one. :-)

For an easier example, have a look at "TestStringCompare" in  
"pnetlib/tests/runtime/System/TestString.cs".  The two-argument version of 
"String.Compare" is an internalcall.  The C code is on line 439 of 
"lib_string.c".

Cheers,

Rhys.
