Nick,

Sorry for the delayed reply - I was out of reach for the last week (RSA
Conference @ San Francisco :-).

Oops. I guess this was overwritten when I re-generated the unit test file
:-(

Done. Thanks.

I've updated the Generator to use the same trick (thread/culture).
So, in theory, it should now works for everyone.

No - but it should be ;-)
Right now this generator is little tied to my own system - so it needs some
updates before going public.

But another generator (for SymmetricalAlgorithm) should, and more
importantly could, be added to CVS. I'll look into it soon.

The new generated tests are commited. Could you test them on both Windows
and Linux and send me the TestResult.xml if they fail ?

Thanks again.
