Deciphering the .NET clr20r3 exception parameters P1..P10

Question

I'm trying to decipher the meaning on the P1...P10 parameters associated with a clr20r3 that is written to the event log when my application experiences an exception.

The best I've been able to find is:

• P1: the hosting process (e.g. w3wp.exe)
• P2: the hosting process version (e.g. 6.0.3790.1830)
• P3: ??? (e.g. 42435be1)
• P4: the assembly from which the exception was raised (e.g. mrtables.webservice)
• P5: the assembly version (e.g. 2.1.2.0)
• P6: ??? (e.g. 4682617f)
• P7: ??? (e.g. 129)
• P8: ??? (e.g. 50)
• P9: the exception type raised (e.g. system.argumentexception)
• P10: ??? (e.g. NIL)

Googling for clr20r3 provides thousands of sample parameter values, from which someone can try to derive a pattern.

But I'm hoping for documentation on the parameter meanings, as opposed to educated guesses.

Edit: While I can hope for canonical documentation, really I'd be happy to see the exception being thrown, at what line, complete with a stack trace.

Bonus Reading

• Unhandled exception that caused the application to crash with "EventType clr20r3, P1 w3wp.exe" in the log, but no details there (asking for help with a problem, while we're asking for a canonical explanation of what the parameters mean)
