[Pkg-xfce-devel] Bug#647749: Patch

TWC automatically disabled all existing xmloap licenses on 10/31. 
However, they didn't disable the xmloap service itself yet (nor the 
ability to get a new license id). The patch will work until TWC's xmloap 
service is ended, which could be tomorrow or many moons from now (your 
guess is as good as mine).

I applied the patch as shown and my weather plugin is working again. It 
will work until TWC ends xmloap or manually disables my license id 
(though I can't see why they would do that since the plugin does follow 
all of the licensing agreements (non-profit, shows logo and promotional 
links, etc.).
