This doesn't match the "int" return type you've defined, and it
results in build errors (see the buildbots).

And this seems to want an int.

Can I say again that I hate XML, and am very much -0.5 on using it in
our protocol like this? These bodies have nothing to conform to, so
there is no reason to use XML. If you're doing it for *expedience*
rather than *propriety*, then I'd suggest taking short cuts now could
hurt us in the long term. XML means we need to deal with escaping as
we move forward. It is overly wordy. Hard to write parsing code. etc
etc.
