I don't remember the details off the top of my head, but basically there
was no code that would accept the reference and turn it into a value.
The references are specified earlier in the file than their values, so
the code has to store up the references, then after they are defined, go
back and update structures with the corresponding values. From what I
could tell, the implementation never even attempted to deal with the
problem.

I have not looked at ksoap2. Perhaps I should check it out. I would
consider this a bug fix if not implementing something in the spec is a
bug. If bugs are limited to fixing what was supported, then this would
be an extension.

Let me see if I can get cygwin this weekend and make a diff for you.
