[JDEV] ICQ Transport with Jabber 1.2 - still getting remote s erver error

[Eric Bowersox]

Just a note - the new version of the ICQ transport *will* support the
configuration file mechanism, and we have gotten it to connect to a 1.2
(jabberd) server.  It's not ready for release quite yet though, as there are
some important questions that need to be resolved first.
