I have a server that has to respond to HTTP and XML-RPC requests. Right now I have an instance of SimpleXMLRPCServer, and an instance of BaseHTTPServer.HTTPServer with a custom request handler, running on different ports. I'd like to run both services on a single port. 
I think it should be possible to modify the CGIXMLRPCRequestHandler class to also serve custom HTTP requests on some paths, or alternately, to use multiple request handlers based on what path is requested. I'm not really sure what the cleanest way to do this would be, though.
Is there a reason not to run a real webserver out front with url rewrites to the two ports you are usign now? It's going to make life much easier in the long run
