iirc running the server without a nodename is ok in 1.0.0-alpha, but it
is not something we recommend.

Are the rfc4627 libs on your erlang load path?

This works fine for me, running against our latest dev snapshot. I may
give it a try against 1.0.0-alpha later, if I find the time.

I should point out that the JSON-RPC interface and any tools built on
top of it, e.g. com.rabbitmq.tools.Manager, are highly experimental.
