Windows Live Writer, lighttpd, and WordPress xmlrpc.php

I love Windows Live Writer. I use it now for all my blog editing. Recently though, after setting up my new SheevaPlug as my server and using lighttpd instead of apache as my webserver I found that I can’t use it. I got the following error trying to add my blog to my new install of WLW:

An error occurred while attempting to connect to your blog:

Invalid Server Response – The response to the blogger.getUsersBlogs method received from the blog server was invalid:

Invalid response document returned from XmlRpc server

You must correct this error before proceeding.
