fxcop fails because of references on obfuscated assemblies

I need to run fxcop on a project that references an obfuscated commercial assembly (from dotnetremoting.com). Fxcop tries to load the obfuscated assembly and fails... I have got exactly the same problem with Mono Gendarme. It also tries to analyse referenced assemblies and fails. Thanks in advance for your responses

Gendarme has a test suite (unit tests and 'weird' binaries) that is used to ensure it does not fail* when loading assemblies. * at least not totally fail, if Cecil cannot load the assembly then it will be ignored.

You can contribute to both by submitting code - or tell where to find the binaries (if they are publicly available, e.g. a demo version).
