'Replace'? Code written for ext/xmlrpc won't work with ext/xmlrpci. Will
ext/xmlrpc be available in PECL, given that it doesn't appear to have an

I'm well aware of ext/xmlrpc's limitations, haven't tried the new (but
necessary) pecl/xmlrpci yet, and have the tiny issue that a bunch of my
scripts will need a complete rewrite if the old extension is simply taken
away from PHP 5 up. I suspect I'm far from being alone in that - do we have
figures for core extension usage, anyone?
How about placing some compatibility functions in ext/xmlrpci or a
PEAR package that emulates this using xmlrpci, if it is not too
development expensive? This would put everything to libxml2 and
everybody would be happy.
Why do we need to completely rewrite all this xmlrpc stuff? Because
SOAP uses XMLRPC in SOAP envelopes (when encoding is rpc) - why not
reuse the soap extension for plain xmlrpc without soap envelopes?
