Because the marshaling is happening in the guts of xmlrpc.

I may have solved it anyway.  The code I was running was spitting out that 
error but I think it was actually happening in the server that it was 
connecting to.  I just added that same code to the server.  Have to wait 
until Monday to test.  I will update the list if it fixes it.
