One of these days we'll get the JNI doc published which discusses many of these 
issues.

In the meantime...

Not GetNotifyHandler(), but n_Notify():

What's going on is a "reverse P/Invoke": you're creating a delegate 
(`cb_notify`), which is passed to native code (Dalvik), and the delegate is 
invoked. This means that you need to stick to types that the P/Invoke marshaler 
knows about.

In this case, the P/Invoke marshaler will see a `string` parameter, assume that 
it's a UTF-8 `const char*` value, and behaves accordingly. However, that's not 
what the parameter will be, it'll be a java.lang.String instance, which the 
P/Invoke marshaler knows nothing about.

The solution is to manually marshal things:

        static void n_Notify(IntPtr jnienv, IntPtr lrefThis, IntPtr native_a)
        {
                ManagedAccessControlJavascriptNotify __this = 
Java.Lang.Object.GetObject<ManagedAccessControlJavascriptNotify>(
                                lrefThis, JniHandleOwnership.DoNotTransfer);
                Java.Lang.String a = 
Java.Lang.Object.GetObject<Java.Lang.String>(
                                a, JniHandleOwnership.DoNotTransfer);
                __this.Notify (a);
        }

Convert the Java.Lang.String to a System.String by using 
Java.Lang.String.ToString(). :-)
