Sadly, that's only a temporary fix.
The real problem is that XML Serialization is evil and to be avoided.
XML Serialization requires that members be public; if members aren't
public, you can't deserialize, e.g. under Mono:
http://code.google.com/p/dblinq2007/issues/detail?id=193
and the members can't be public under Mono (as we don't want to expose
types+members under Mono that aren't exposed under .NET's
System.Data.Linq.dll assembly).
Which is "lots" of fun for Mono's sqlmetal users (all 1 of them).
The fix is to rip out XML Serialization and use e.g. XLinq instead.
