+It is a bug, but its not safe to use the char functions on the binary 
+reader. I'm guessing that because we default to utf-8 like ms.net, if 
+the byte at where ever the buffer is at, is above 128, in UTF-8 that 
+would need to keep rolling over and does so until it hits something 
+looking for something else and borks. It looks pretty safe but the 
+error is up inside System.Text somewhere. Can you post the image you 
+where using so I can duplicate this exactly?
