---------------------------------

There is a copy-right bogusly attached on the SerializerTest which I need to remove and re-submit.  Can someone delete this attachment and I will re-submit?

> I have a use-case where I need to write serialized classes to a stream, and the reader of the stream may not have those classes.  In such a case, I would like the reader to be able to invoke DataFileReader#invoke within a try{} block to catch the AvroRuntimeException(ClassNotFoundException) and move on.
> This currently does not work, because of an exception thrown when retrieving a Symbol.
> I've attached a test which demonstrates this problem.
