The one thing that occurs to me is something that bit libpurple for a while
until someone pointed this out (they worked for some people, and not for
others).

Not only does a client have to advertise support (as noted in that
document) at login, but there's also a per-account setting which has to be
set to 'true'.

See ./libpurple/protocols/jabber/google/gmail.c:jabber_gmail_init, and
