/*
The problem:

In order to pipeline requests to the same webserver the following function was created, following the documentation for the Zend_Http_Client documentation. However, there appears to be something in the Zend_XmlRpc_Client code which isn't taking into account URI changes.

For this example let's suppose class1 has one function called hello, and class2 one function called goodbye.
