 This patch uses the ToBinary/FromBinary which is better. Thanks to
 Robert for pointing that out. It replaces patch from 08/21/07 14:20
 
 Cheers,

+> Also for the record:

+
+This statement raised my curiosity, because "it cannot be" ;-)
+
+The problem why it looks like when Lionel's patch were necessary, is
+the fancy implementation of the binary formatter: it dynamically
+generates code that serializes classes optimally fast.
+
+This code path is not entered for remoting method messages,
+because it would rather harm than help (too much overhead).
+
+To be complete (and also to fix serialization of classes containing
+DateTime fields), 
+
+class/corlib/System.Runtime.Serialization.Formatters.Binary/CodeGenerator.cs
+
+must be adjusted as well.
