	Strange thing is, that in Facebook Security Settings "Where
You're Logged In" shows under Char Pidgin attempts to log in. And in
Debug Windows:

jabber: Got a result iq with id [XXXXX] from
-[NUMBERS]@chat.facebook.com instead of expected
[USERNAME]@chat.facebook.com!

	So it appears, that XMPP itself works.
