[Mono-list] XML-RPC listener produces exception on Mono, but works on .NET ("Cannot be changed after headers are sent")

[Alan McGovern]

Technically, you should write the headers before you write the content. That
means you need to set content type and all that *before* you write the
actual data to the response stream. I came across this one recently myself
and filed a bug:

https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=343915

Unfortunately it looks like the default MS.NET behavior is buggy, in that it
lets you set content type even though the headers are already sent and the
receiver will never see that new value.
