 AFAIK it is not possible to add a new post with a featured image using
 only XML-RPC. This is because the way to add a featured image with XML-RPC
 requires the wp_posts.id of the image to be used.

 I have attached a patch based on trunk rev. 15775 which returns that id
 when performing a metaWeblog.newMediaObject. This id can then be used in
 the custom_fields of a metaWeblog.newPost to set the featured image (or
 _thumbnail_id).
