Description:
------------
Sutiation here: windows client, and php xmlrpc server. I believe versions are irrelevant.

Some delphi components and its serialize functions are creating message like:

<methodCall>
...
<RPCmethodName>blahblah</RPCmethodName>
</methodCall>

and XML_RPC expects <methodName>. It's quite easy to tweak this in RPC.php (and do it each time new version is published) or to add some preg_replace on $HTTP_RAW_POST_DATA in the starting lines of xmlrpc server.

Reproduce code:
---------------
"Patch" for RPC.php would be in function XML_RPC_ee($parser_resource, $name)... line 388 (in RPC.php,v 1.66):

case 'METHODNAME':
case 'RPCMETHODNAME':

instead of

case 'METHODNAME':

Is there a chance this "patch" of RPC.php to become offical?
