Finally got MSN token updating working (I think). So it seems after creating the signature, the xmlnode_to_str must have added some xmlns attributes which were sent to the server. I thought that CanonicalizationMethod stuff the XML specified meant the server would normalize everything nicely, but apparently not. I added the xmlns to the XML string before creating the signature and it looks like things work now. It just needs a full 8-hour test to be certain. Did a bit of re-factoring to the token response parsing, as well. It should now fail the first time something shows up that isn't expected, or if something is missing, instead of blindly going forward with half the tokens we requested. References #4875.
