Mono. Xamarin. Error loading svg images. System.MethodAccessException

I'm developing a mobile application with Xamarin and getting an error when running it.
The error occurs very often but not always.
I'm testing it on Sumsung Galaxy S6.

The code that I am using (located in renderer):

new SvgReader(new StreamReader(svgStream),
              new StylesParser(new ValuesParser()),
              new ValuesParser());

Xamarin version:

Exception:

How do I solve the error?

I kept getting the Method 'System.Xml.XmlReader:get_DtdInfo ()' is inaccessible exception randomly until I removed all the extra cruft in the doctype and xmlns that gfx editors tend to put in there.

Before, my SVG files looked like this..

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE svg PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD SVG 1.1//EN" "http://www.w3.org/Graphics/SVG/1.1/DTD/svg11.dtd" [
<!ENTITY ns_extend "http://ns.adobe.com/Extensibility/1.0/">
<!ENTITY ns_ai "http://ns.adobe.com/AdobeIllustrator/10.0/">
<!ENTITY ns_graphs "http://ns.adobe.com/Graphs/1.0/">
<!ENTITY ns_vars "http://ns.adobe.com/Variables/1.0/">
<!ENTITY ns_imrep "http://ns.adobe.com/ImageReplacement/1.0/">
<!ENTITY ns_sfw "http://ns.adobe.com/SaveForWeb/1.0/">
<!ENTITY ns_custom "http://ns.adobe.com/GenericCustomNamespace/1.0/">
<!ENTITY ns_adobe_xpath "http://ns.adobe.com/XPath/1.0/">]>
<svg version="1.1" id="Layer_1" xmlns:x="&ns_extend;" xmlns:i="&ns_ai;" xmlns:graph="&ns_graphs;"
 xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" x="0px" y="0px" width="512px" height="512px" viewBox="0 0 512 512" enable-background="new 0 0 512 512" xml:space="preserve">
    <metadata>
        <sfw  xmlns="&ns_sfw;">
            <slices></slices>
            <sliceSourceBounds  width="427.66" height="361.922" x="42.17" y="-436.961" bottomLeftOrigin="true"></sliceSourceBounds>
        </sfw>
    </metadata>
    <g>
        ...

But I trimmed out anything unnecessary looking until I got...

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<svg version="1.1" id="Layer_1" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" x="0px" y="0px" width="512px" height="512px" viewBox="0 0 512 512" enable-background="new 0 0 512 512" xml:space="preserve">
    <g>
        ...

And the random crashes went away for me. Complex dtd/xmlns must freak the lib out.

Bad news, this appears to be covered in the following Xamarin bugzilla posts:

  1. https://bugzilla.xamarin.com/show_bug.cgi?id=44134; (duplicate of)
  2. https://bugzilla.xamarin.com/show_bug.cgi?id=41133

Here is the Xamarin description for this exception.

https://developer.xamarin.com/api/type/System.MethodAccessException/

For now, I would advise implementing the work-around suggested in these forums to simply catch the exception and move on (sadly...).
