scrubxml() is a member of Site class, this looks as wrong.

yes, it looks quite wrong.
 
Is a new
function really necessary?

The first version of the function justified a function by itself ( https://fisheye.toolserver.org/browse/pywikipedia/trunk/pywikipedia/wikipedia.py?r1=6555&r2=6567 ). It's not that necessary now =) 

Data truncation when find() doesn't return a value >= 0 may be omitted too.

Not quite sure of what you mean, but go ahead, be bold =)
