New description:

 Pounces work fine for me most of the time. However, if I make a pounce in
 pidgin and exit and it is nicely saved... it will disappear after running
 finch (start then quit) just once.

 Steps to reproduce:

  - mkdir test
  - cd test
  - pidgin -c $PWD
  - ''Add a gmail account, add a pounce, set it as recurring, exit''
  - cat pounces.xml
  - ''see attachment 1-pidgin-pounces.xml''
  - pidgin -c $PWD
  - ''verify that the pounce is still there''
  - cat pounces.xml
  - ''verify there is no difference''
  - finch -c $PWD
  - ''alt-Q to just exit''
  - cat pounces.xml
  - ''see attachment 2-finch-pounces.xml''

 The diff of the pounces file looks like this:

 {{{
 --- a/pounces.xml
 +++ b/pounces.xml
 @@ -10,9 +10,7 @@
                         <event type='start-typing'/>
                 </events>
                 <actions>
 -                       <action type='send-message'>
 -                               <param name='message'>You want to say
 something?</param>
 -                       </action>
 +                       <action type='send-message'/>
                 </actions>
                 <save/>
         </pounce>
 }}}

 The problem works both ways - pidgin will wipe the action params for finch
 pounces.
