cruft? there's no cruft!

walkah complained that XML-RPC escapes apostrophes. Steven said it's OK
not to do so, so here is the patch. I am quoting the manual:


"It takes on one of three constants with the default being ENT_COMPAT:


ENT_COMPAT	Will convert double-quotes and leave single-quotes alone.
ENT_QUOTES	Will convert both double and single quotes.
ENT_NOQUOTES	Will leave both double and single quotes unconverted.


"

big +1 . the issue is , with ENT_QUOTES .. blogapi users get their
apostrophes returned encoded, which is confusing, and frustrating (and
then they email me ;) )

walkah: does that mean you can remove some cruft from the
blogapi.module.
