Unmaintained, outdated and unused xmlrpc-c was removed a few days ago. rtorrent and its libtorrent are in the same shape, but still in tree. Could you check out the old removed xmlrpc-c version, apply my mechanical untested update on ports@ and retest? I also have a WIP libtorrent update and bentley (cc'ed) might be working on an rtorrent update at the moment. It would be great to bring these ports into better shape before reviving old questionable xmlrpc-c again.
