New description:

 If I chat over bonjour with pidgin clients the default font settings of
 received messages get replaced with a small ugly Helvetica font (on Debian
 and Ubuntu).

 This 'default font' is hardcoded in the bonjour protocol (jabber.c),
 which, in my opinion, is not a good solution. As I do not use Helvetica as
 my gnome default font. The attached patch fixes the bug, but creates
 (possibly) incomplete font tags. Some more love is needed ;)

 Cheers,

 Simon Wenner
