+Summary: BitConverter.ToString(byte[]) works improperly with zero-length arrays
+
+BitConverter.ToString(byte[]) works improperly with zero-length arrays.
+
+An example:
+  string result = BitConverter.ToString(new byte[0]);
+
+The following exception throwing:
+
+System.ArgumentOutOfRangeException: Argument is out of range.
+Parameter name: startIndex
+in <0x00092> System.BitConverter:ToString (byte[],int,int)
+in <0x00042> System.BitConverter:ToString (byte[])
+...
+
+Since BitConverter is used in System.Data.SqlClient classes (as far as I 
+remembers, Tds70 or something like this), this bug makes impossible to 
+e.g. pass zero-length byte arrays as query parameters.
