I found this problem while trying to read symbols. In Mono.Cecil.Cil
\Symbol.cs, the GetPlatformReaderProvider() and
GetPlatformWriterProvider() are calling GetPlatformType() that doesn't
match the provider type inside of the Mdb of Pdb assemblies.
var type = GetPlatformType ("Mono.Cecil." + symbol_kind +
".ReaderProvider");
should be:
var type = GetPlatformType ("Mono.Cecil." + symbol_kind + "." +
symbol_kind + "ReaderProvider");
I'd probably just change the name of the type inside of the respective
symbol assembly to just be "Mono.Cecil.Xyz.ReaderProvider" instead of
"Mono.Cecil.Xyz.XyzReaderProvider".
