You may want to contact the people who wrote the offending client libraries and let them know that their implementation does not fully satisfy the specification. It seems like a really big issue considering that the xmlrpc spec is so simple itself ;) It also doesn't seem like it would be that difficult for them to fix. Eric Westfall
