+Summary: XML serialization of enum caused InvalidCastException
+
+Description of Problem:
+
+When attemption to serialize an enum type using the XmlSerializer an 
+InvalidCastException is thrown : 
+
+Unhandled Exception: System.InvalidCastException: Cannot cast from source 
+type t
+o destination type
+in <0x001fe> 00 System.Xml.Serialization.XmlSerializer:Serialize 
+(System.Xml.Xml
+Writer,object,System.Xml.Serialization.XmlSerializerNamespaces)
+in <0x00059> 00 System.Xml.Serialization.XmlSerializer:Serialize

+I'll attach a file that allows you to reproduce this issue.
+
+When executing the attached source file using the MS .NET runtime, I get 
+the following output (as expected) :
+
+<?xml version="1.0" encoding="Windows-1252"?>
+<TestValues>Value1 Value2</TestValues>
