It appears XmlConvert.ToDateTime has not trouble converting "2010-11-10" to a
DateTime value when one of the other XmlDateTimeSerializationMode enumeration
values are specified. Only Local causes FormatException to be thrown.

The same test on Microsoft .NET Framework 4.0 on Windows 7 successfully parses
"2010-11-10" with XmlDateTimeSerializationMode.Local.
