+# standard xmlrpc.so that ships with PHP does not marshal NULL
+# prior to May 2017 we used to ship our own brew of xmlrpc but
+# that does not build anymore on f25
+# So bottom line is:
+# * don't use fedora's php-xmlrpc (no support for marshalling NULL)
+# * don't use our own that is way too old
+# * instead, thanks to Ciro we pull it from
+# https://github.com/gggeek/phpxmlrpc.git
+# Requires: php-xmlrpc
