issue2550749 - the xmlrpc interface is invoked on content type and not url path. Sending any text/xml data to roundup results in invoking the xml-rpc interface, but a REST or other interface could also consume xml data and do something different. So require the use of 'http(s)://.../xmlrpc' uri to trigger the xmlrpc interface.

+If you are using the xml-rpc interface, there is a change
+  in accessing it. You can not send text/xml data to any
+  roundup url and get a response, you must use the /xmlrpc
+  url. For example, if you used to send your xmlrpc request to:
+
+   http://myroundup.com/roundup
+
+  you need to change the url to read:
+
+   http://myroundup.com/roundup/xmlrpc
+
+  to invoke the xmlrpc handler. This allows us to send xml
+  data to roundup for other handlers (e.g. REST, SOAP ...)
+  in the future.
