Thank you for both of your responses, Chris: I've already tried using Aegis instead of JAXB, configured with readXsiTypes and writeXsiTypes both set to true - with no effect on the <return> value.
Dan: I guess I'll just have to stick to the old org.apache.soap implementation for backward compatibility. :( I already spent too much time trying to make CXF write the xsi:type.
