Comment(by westi):

 I am not thrilled by this.

 I wonder if we would do better to create a plugin that people can install
 and point them at that while we have hosts not upgrading.

 We could use the xmlrpc_methods filter to fix the content of
 $HTTP_RAW_POST_DATA (while returning whatever was passed to the filter)
 that way the plugin would fix it for all WordPress versions and could be
 installed on existing 2.7/2.7.1 installs.

 What do you think?
