 I'm having an weird error on method getOptions from XML-RPC API.

 My password has a single quote ('), ex: abc'cba

 Method getPosts works well, returning my blog posts.
 {{{curl --header "Accept: text/xml;" --data "<?xml
 version="1.0"?><methodCall><methodName>wp.getPosts</methodName><params><param><value><string></string></value></param><param><value><string>MYUSERNAME</string></value></param><param><value><string>abc'cba</string></value></param></params></methodCall>"
 http://www.MYBLOGURL.com/xmlrpc.php}}}

 Method getOptions doesnt work at all, returning "Incorrect username or
 password."
 {{{curl --header "Accept: text/xml;" --data "<?xml
 version="1.0"?><methodCall><methodName>wp.getOptions</methodName><params><param><value><string></string></value></param><param><value><string>MYUSERNAME</string></value></param><param><value><string>abc'cba</string></value></param></params></methodCall>"
 http://www.MYBLOGURL.com/xmlrpc.php}}}

 If I remove the single quote from password, both methods works well.
