Yep.  My patch (and the latest tarball of xmlrpc-c) are here:

        http://primates.ximian.com/~joe/xmlrpc-c
        
It messes around with the configure.in and Makefile.am files, so you'll
want to do something like this before you configure:

        libtoolize --force --copy
        aclocal
        autoheader
        automake --gnu
        autoconf

Oooh.  Neat idea.  You could just include the XML-RPC segment as a MIME
attachment and add a handler to parse it on the other side.  Of course,
then you have to worry about all sorts of chess email viruses. ;)
