well, not really a bug, its the way the SOAP spec is going. SoapAction was
meant to let things do a security check on what was allowed, and rapidly see
what method gets called, but it really duplicates what is in the body of the
message. For a security check to work you need to make sure that SoapAction
matches the real intent of the message, so you always need to parse the XML
anyway. The earlier SOAP toolkits do expect and use it, however.
