[Mono-list] BinaryFormatter, Deserialize(), casting throws exception.

[Atsushi Eno]

Hi,

I'm not expertized in remoting land so I'm not writing the solution,
but anyways ... this InvalidCastException is likely to happen in
remoting land and in that case it is also likely to happen that
those types are regarded as identical, while one is a transparent
proxy while the other is the original type.

Another thought I have is that the InvalidCastException might not
be happening against "Mydata" type but somewhere inside the
deserialization. What does the full stack trace tell you?
