I believe the usual way to access POST data, $r->content, is only
for form data. To get XML data, try this:
my $buf = '';
$r->read($buf, $ENV{CONTENT_LENGTH});
This is a general mod_perl API issue, and not necessarily specific
to Mason, though Mason may have some other API specific to this.
This may in fact collide with Mason form processing if there is
any, since a mod_perl application will hang if it tries to
read the POST data twice.
