Can you provide more detail about this? I.e., any idea what exactly is  
failing, or where? What exactly happens when it fails?

Not sure how we wouldn't have an explicit protocol? At least in  
current stable, the protocol is chosen based on the Content-Type  
header of the request. If there is no Content-Type header, we default  
to WebDav since rpc.php is the same entry point.
