I don't think there's any newer fix for this. There's no reason to be worried about manually updating the .xml file, though - it's just like any of the other configuration files CF uses except it doesn't come with a GUI to update it. Alternatively, you could save the chart to a file immediately, then serve that file instead of the temporary file generated by the chart itself. One of the comments in the post suggested that, and it sounds acceptable to me.
