+Um, this is what I get for reading Microsoft docs (well, stands
+to reason that they have problems with case)...
+
+The original patch was slightly broken - it's supposed to be
+xsd:boolean, not xsd:Boolean.  Oddly enough, MS .Net was okay
+accepting xsd:Boolean as a type, but it writes out xsd:boolean,
+so Mono still didn't understand.  I suppose that's a new aspect
+to the bug - there's basically the same problem in ArrayLists
+for booleans as for doubles.
+
+Speaking of ArrayList problems, there are several other types
+that MS .Net serializes in ArrayLists as XSD types that Mono
+doesn't recognize - so I added those to the patch as well.
+They are: uint, ushort, ulong, and sbyte.  (I'm guessing the
+problems with ArrayList will also show up anywhere the type is
+ambiguous - e.g., other containers - but that's just a guess.)
