I eventually tracked this down to xmlrpc changes in python 2.7 . The patch below fixes the xm problem, and a xend problem serving xmlrpc. Note that the first part won't work as written with earlier versions of python, though the second part is probably safe as disable_nagle_algorithm was introduced in python 2.7.
