I assume you're talking about the XML-RPC For C/C++, aka Xmlrpc-c, package.

While the package contains facilities to create just about any kind of
server you want, the kind that does the most work for you is the
free-running Abyss-based server you see in the
"xmlrpc_sample_add_server" example.  Such a server ordinarily uses
pthreads -- one thread for each HTTP connection.  But there is an
alternative version, intended for systems that don't have pthreads,
that uses fork instead.  You build that with the
--disable-abyss-threads option to 'configure'.
