How does IronPython receive the results of GetDescendants() or Elements()
from the Linq library.

The for loop doesn't return any result, but it also doesn't raise an
exception. The MSDN documentation has only examples for c# which all use the
"from ... select ...." syntax from Linq which isn't available here.
