-----------------------------------
Float                           1 (TCLSoap returned correct value, but it's
a xsd:double)
Struct                          1 (Soapx4 doesn't support multi-ref)
StructArray                     6 (4s4c return provides incomplete type
info,
                                   Frontier return clear has an invalid
type,
                                   HP returns an exception,
                                   Soapx4 doesn't support multi-ref
                                   SQLData doesn't send back all of the
elements
                                   TclSoap returns a parsing exception)
Void                            2 (SoapX4 and TclSoap both return elements
with no values)
Base64           1              2 (SoapX4 and Spheon both had type
mismatches)
Hex Binary       6              2 (4s4c and 4s4c2.0 both return
soapenc:base64)
Date             2              1 (SoapX4 expected timeInstant not
dateTime)
Decimal          5              2 (424c rounded the value,
                                   ZSI returned an extra significant
digit..real close!)
Boolean          4
====================================
Totals          18     +       17     = 35

Also there are more SOAP structArray problems.  Without the wire dumps
its hard to tell what is going on, but I suspect that SOAP is now sending
the arrays across with a type=ArrayOfSOAPStruct instead of
type=soapenc:Array.
SOAP may need to apply the same fix that I did to the array serializer to
force type=soapenc:Array.
