HTTPRequest.processInputs changes the REQUEST_METHOD to an empty string when handling an xml-rpc request.

This causes Cookie Crumbler to fail because the REQUEST_METHOD is not in (GET,POST,PUT).

The comment in HTTPRequest says "We don't want index_html!" which is nuts, because REQUEST_METHOD must be "POST" to process an xml-rpc request.

I think this line should be removed from HTTPRequest:

other['REQUEST_METHOD']='' # We don't want index_html!
