I'm trying to set up blade unit tests in an MVC Turbine-derived site. The problem is that I can't seem to mock the IServiceLocator interface without hitting the following exception:

System.BadImageFormatException: An attempt was made to load a program with an incorrect format. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x8007000B)

Everything I search for regarding this error leads me to 32-bit vs. 64-bit DLL compilation issues, but MVC Turbine uses the service locator facade everywhere and we haven't had any other issues, just with using Rhino Mocks to attempt mocking it.

It blows up on the second line of this NUnit set up method:

IRotorContext _context;
IServiceLocator _locator;

[SetUp]
public void SetUp()
{
    _context = MockRepository.GenerateStub<IRotorContext>();
    _locator = MockRepository.GenerateStub<IServiceLocator>();
    _context.Expect(x => x.ServiceLocator).Return(_locator);
}

Just a quick aside; I've tried implementing a fake implementing IServiceLocator, thinking that I could just keep track of calls to the type registration methods. This won't work in our setup, because we extend the service locator's interface in such a way that if the type isn't Unity-based, the registration logic is not invoked.
