This is the Jabber SASL code that I contributed ... Do folk think it  
would be worth having that code check to see if there are suitable  
SASL mechanisms installed, and giving a more verbose error message if  
there are not? The danger is that it's possible that systems  
administrators may have deliberately disabled 'weak' mechanism  
plugins on the client side.
