There is at least on implementation that uses the Content-length:
header. My own xmlrpc-client. :-), a quick (and you may call it 
therefore dirty) C++ client from the times when only java 
implementations ruled the xmlrpc world.

Of course I could update to better C++ xmlrpc-clients when I
want to use newer xmlrpc-versions and I personally don't want
to veto against this development trend. I just wanted to point 
out that implementations *exist* which really depend on particular 
specification details.
