a little (in the context of XMPP and the code I committed a few days ago)
and we both also weren't sure purple_network_listen is doing the right
thing. It seems to me like it would make more sense for it
purple_network_listen() to attach to a wildcard address (either 0.0.0.0 or
::) on the specified port, instead of finding the first that succeeds, and
it also should take an "IPv4 or IPv6" option.

Changes along the lines of what you're talking about are what I had
envisioned.
I'm not sure about the removal of the finding a port in the range - it
seems like that is pretty useful (and if we're specifying the protocol
should still be possible).
