Are you developing on Linux (other other Unixy system)?  If so, 'grep'
is your friend.  Searching for bonjour_login in
libpurple/protocols/bonjour/bonjour.c shows that it is set as the
"login" field in the PurplePluginProtocolInfo struct.  Searching for
"->login" in libpurple/*.c will show you where it's called.
