Comment (by dinomic):

 @rtvenge, you hit the nail on the head! The XMLRPC "appears" to work,
 because there are no errors - other than you are not given access to the
 resources you are after. This made if VERY difficult to work out what was
 actually going wrong, and it's only when I found this bug report when I
 realised that the bug was the cause of the weird behaviour we were seeing.

 IMHO, if there is a non-optional parameter that an XMLRPC method is
 expecting, it should make use of that parameter. If you want to drop the
 use of blog_id, then create a new version of the method that doesn't
 require it - just leave the existing method alone, working as it did
 before.

 There's no other way to explain this but as a breaking change!
