[Mono-list] XmlTextReader class problem

[Atsushi Eno]

It looked like a bug, so fixed in svn. Thanks.

The expected behavior I think is:

	- Encoding property returns the "actual" encoding since it
	  is concrete System.Text.Encoding instance, and
	- "encoding" value which could be acquired by
	  GetAttribute("encoding") at XML declaration state is
	  the "nominal" enccoding since it just returns string.

I'll add those differences on the documentation later (BTW I haven't
touched the docs or I lost my memory of doing it when you blinked).
