 I'll see if I can strip it down a bit.

+OK, I did send the test-case as requested.
+
+A bit of explanation: SillyReader.Read(char[]...) returns its 
+contents one at the time. ReadBlock is supposed to remedy this by 
+invoking Read multiple times until all requested chars are read. The 
+actual version does so but return only the amount of chars read 
+during the last iteration instead of the total of chars read by all 
+iterations.
+
+The patch fixes this problem.
