           Summary: DataContractSerializer must invoke constructor before
                    calling ReadXml on IXmlSerializable types

DataContractSerializer uses FormatterServices.GetUninitializedObject on an
IXmlSerializable type, and invokes ReadXml on the raw object.

On the other hand, XmlSerializer uses Activator.CreateInstance before invoking
ReadXml.  I believe that the XmlSerializer usage of IXmlSerializable is
definitive.  ReadXml can and should assume that it is invoked on a fully
constructed object (albeit, constructed from a parameterless constructor).

In any case, the attached testcase works fine on .NET but null-refs on Mono
trunk.


Reproducible: Always
