 Not sure if this is a defect or by design, but in looking for the Pidgin
 client to set up the default language of the server connection, we see
 that no matter what the language is set to (e.g., PIDGINLANG=fr) the
 xml:lang attribute is never sent by Pidgin, leading servers to default the
 connection to "en" (English).

 A debug log:

 Is this the way it is supposed to work?
