#968: cherrypy.test.helper recognizes requests server does not

I've attached two files. One is a simple xmlrpc server in CherryPy that
returns ["Hello", "World"]. The other uses cherrypy.test.helper to test
the server. Although all tests pass, if you actually start the server and
use xmlrpclib to recreate the test, it does not work:

{{{
In [7]: sp = xmlrpclib.ServerProxy('http://localhost:8080')

In [8]: sp.hello()

It's possible that I'm incorrectly using the xmlrpc controller, but if
that's the case, the unittests should also fail. Does this make sense?
