mocking xmlrpclib

[J Kenneth King]

At the risk of sounding like I don't know what I'm doing, I must say
that I am finding it rather difficult/tedious to mock the xmlrpclib
interface using minimock.

I refuse to believe that I'm the only developer to have tried this
before, but google isn't being my friend and I can't seem to get it to
work outside the interpreter (ie: in actual unit tests).

Has anyone in c.l.p encountered this problem or have any tips?
