Comment:

 This patch is unlikely to be accepted as is for a number of reasons, not
 least of which is the fact that it adds a hard dependency on NSS to
 pidgin. But also the fact that the correct way to do this is to integrate
 pidgin with existing system password storage systems (a task for which
 there is a SoC project this year). I'm assigning this to the SoC mentor
 for that project in case it has any use there.

 Oh, one last thing, there really isn't any point to tarring up a single
 file, it just adds extraction annoyance for people downloading it.
