Summary: xmlrpclib broken

Initial Comment:
Between version 1.5 and 1.6 of Lib/xmlrpclib.py, an import
from cgi import escape

was removed, and now escape is no longer in the namespace.

Fix is easy, put the line back.

Mihai, what you are missing is that in each case there is a
line "from cgi import escape" which makes the function
available to the local scope.

I conclude this is not a bug, unless you can show is some
sample code that crashes because of this.

Am I missing something? I see a lot of uses for escape in
dump_string, dump_xml and such, and no import beforehand.

Why is that a bug? Every use of escape imports it before 
using it.
