 I'm having some difficulty getting UPnP to work with Pidgin (2.7.5, in
 this case, using the build from the Ubuntu Pidgin-Packagers PPA. But this
 has been the case for several years at least)

 I have two systems--a 64bit Desktop system, and a 32bit Netbook, both of
 which are connected to a Linksys WRT54g router, running DD-Wrt V24 SP1.
 Both machines are capable of both wireless and wired connections, the
 results of which are the same no matter which machine uses which
 connection.

 The odd thing is.. UPnP works fine on the 64 bit desktop--It can get the
 external IP and forward ports (as evidenced by DD-Wrt's UPnP screen).
 However, on the 32 bit Netbook, UPnP doesn't work at all

 I've made a somewhat minimalist test case where they both attempt to get
 the external IP on pidgin startup
