There is talk from some people that simply upgrading phpxmlrpc will not suffice, and that you have to upgrade everything which uses it. Confusion abundant so to speak.

Anyone have any clarification on this?

If someone bundled a vulnerable package in his distribution, upgrading the original package does not help, you need to upgrade the bundled version also. The easiest way to do that is to upgrade the application that bundles the lib (given that the application developers provide an updated version).
