+You should not use GetBuffer() to get the bytes from the MemoryStream,
+you should use ToArray() instead. GetBuffer() returns the internal
+buffer, which can have more bytes that the actually writen.
+
+The test case is crashing in Mono because the serializer finds several
+null chars at the end of the stream and can't deal with this. I've
+fixed the XmlTextReader so it stops parsing when it finds a null char,
+and now the test case works.
+
+The fix is commited in the 1.0 CVS branch and in the HEAD branch, so
+it will be available in Mono 1.0.1 and Mono 1.1.
