Description

From https://github.com/IronLanguages/ironpython3/pull/940

The Constrained Execution Region (CER) feature is not supported. I don't think this is a change specific to .NET 5, just a new warning. This comes up in ctypes. Need to file an issue to investigate what the consequences are.

Research direction

Review PR 940 and the ctypes code path where the SYSLIB0004 warning appears, then investigate the consequences of unsupported Constrained Execution Regions. Done means documenting the impact and identifying the compatibility change or follow-up required.
