Description

After upgrading log4net from v1.2.11 to v2.0.8 we are now getting the following exception on startup (inc stack trace):

An error occurred while trying to start an integrated application instance.

Exception: System.Runtime.Serialization.SerializationException

Message: Type is not resolved for member 'log4net.Util.PropertiesDictionary,log4net, Version=2.0.8.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=669e0ddf0bb1aa2a'.

I've also tested this on v2.0.7 and the same issue occurs.
