Special chars encoding

[GoogleCodeExporter]

It seems the library produces invalid input when sending string with characters 
as "<" and ">". They are not encoded and, obviously, this leads to invalid xml 
stream.

Reproduce the error is really simple: just send via xmlrpc a string with one of 
these chars.

The following unified diff will fix the problem.

I've also attached the diff as a file in case that is preferred.
