Ah, I see what's going on here, looks like I forgot to add a test case for more than one method parameter 😦 I'll fix that ASAP, though the next release that will have this fix will probably be 0.4.0 and not 0.3.2.

Should be fixed with commit https://github.com/ironthree/dxr/commit/24f63e413f78e4ba7d077449353a65221c72573e

I also added test cases for two request parameters, and an "add" function with two parameters to the example server, which now works correctly when called from Python's xmlrpc.client.

Since the changes that were necessary to fix this issue required changes public API changes, it will only be released as part of 0.4.0 (hopefully soon) and won't be backported to the 0.3 branch.

I just published version 0.4.0 to crates.io, which should contain the fix for this problem.
