Just add one line to test for the NULL and not put it in the map
Well this is a quick and probably non-working workaround. The correct
way is to initialize Plexus in XMLRPC mode too. Right now it's
initialized in Servlet mode only I think.
For example if you need to do any velocity stuff (which is the case in
the XMLRPC API I believe when retrieving a page's rendered content) it
won't work since Velocity rendering is now done in a component.
I guess I'll have to look into this to do a proper Plexus
initialization in XMLRPC mode.
