When trying to load an instance of XmlDocument using an XmlTextReader I
consistently get an exception.

Code used to reproduce behavior:
Imports System

Public Class Application
    Public Shared Sub Main()    
        Dim reader as new Xml.XmlTextReader("test.xml")
        reader.WhiteSpaceHandling = Xml.WhitespaceHandling.All
        reader.MoveToContent()
        reader.Read()

        dim doc as new xml.xmldocument
        doc.load(reader)
    End Sub
End Class

XML file contents:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?> 
<Racal>
  <Ports>
    <ConsolePort value="9998" />
  </Ports>
</Racal>


Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Compile the short program.
2. Place XML contents in test.xml file in the same path as the compiled
executable.
3. Run the program.
Actual Results:  
Unhandled Exception: System.NullReferenceException: Unexpected node type
