Chris I saw a few key words in your post, specifically 'door latch' and 'rivet'.
I know the details of your latch will not be the same as the link below, but I think photographs 18 and 33 will give you some idea of how to deal with latch rivets. I also believe some repairs are accomplished by leaving as much rivet material as possible during disassembly and welding later during assembly. I elected to use threaded fasteners so I could take them apart in the future.
If you have the latch in hand how about a picture and perhaps a US Patent Number.

Photo 18 should be in the attachment to post #45, while photo 33 should be in post #47.
