Comment(by josephscott):

 I asked to preserve the code for the sake of this being a 3rd party
 library and being able to merge changes back.  If we make IXR require
 wp_remote_post then IXR it becomes useless as a 3rd party library.  It
 wasn't a question of the wp_remote_post function being available to IXR at
 the point in the code execution.

 This is something the WordPress has struggled with in many cases.
 Importing 3rd party libraries and then making hard/impossible to merge
 changes back.  I'd rather not see that happen in this case.
