What we've found out is that if Apache connects to itself within 
mod_python via a mod_proxy URL, bad things happen.

So if you change

127.0.0.1/cobbler_api (Apache proxied XMLRPC endpoint) to just

127.0.0.1:25151 (python directly)

everything works great.

Rather than hard code the port, I'm going to make it read the settings 
file to get the port number, but basically that's the workaround.

I suspect this /is/ a bug in mod_python and/or mod_proxy though I'm not 
sure the extent of it's seriousness and am ultimately ok with the 
workaround.
