If I understand the problem correctly, your client wants to call the
service with "rpc/encoded" and want to get response with
"document/literal" or "rpc/literal" right?

Current soap4r rpc driver implementation can handle rpc/encoded,
rpc/literal, document/literal, but has some restrictions.
* call and response must be the same mode.
* literal XML cannot have CDATA, PI, etc. etc.

Can I see the call and response sample XML, could be privately?
I might be able to find a workaround.
If not, I'll show you examples for you to find one.
