 Due to Glib being version 2.0 rather than 2.8, I had to change line 62 to
 this:

 I will take a look at your patch and integrate it with my patch. Maybe a
 gethostname function should be in libpurple?

 Does the empty line happen when both ends have the patch?
 The current Pidgin doesn't handle <img> tags in XHTML-IM. The smileys get
 translated to such tags when sending the message. They are "unpacked" by
 the receiver (and the text is "smileyfied" using the functions available
 in libpurple. (if custom smileys have been turned off the tag will just be
 converted to the corresponding shortcut text (the "alt" attribute).
