 I am still struggling with missing documentation for the Perl bindings for
 xmlnode_to_str and while doing that I have managed to create this
 construct:

 {{{
 #$packet = Purple::XMLNode->new();
 Purple::XMLNode::from_str($packet,$packetstr,-1);
 }}}

 (note mistakenly commented out new() line)
 which resulted in the attached backtrace. I don't think any construct in
 Perl should kill pidgin (this time it is Fedora package of yet unreleased
 2.6.0).
