Yes, this is the problem, caused by changes in the xmlrpc code at 
pear.php.net.  I was under the impression that it did not affect pear 
1.3.5, but apparently that was wrong.

The main reason this has changed is the confusion you express (is 
cybermut a PEAR package or a PECL package?).  You can find information 
on these packages in PEAR 1.3.x until there is either a fix for 1.3.x or 
a stable release of 1.4.0 with

pear -d master_server=pecl.php.net remote-info cybermut

Sorry for the trouble,
Greg
