If it can help Jabber people, I have attached specs to build RPMs for
libxode and libjabber. Thanks to Jerome Tournier :)
There aren't separated as user and devel RPMs, and version numbers
are hardcoded and thus incorrect. But it should be helpful anyway.

adns isn't used in jabber 1.1+ (don't ask me why, I wasn't there :)

good

Check that you have libxode-config in your path.
(do you have /usr/local/bin in your $PATH ?)
(also remove config.cache before re-running configure, though 
I don't think this one is cached)

What matters is $prefix/bin/libxode-config, it contains all the infos
about libxode.
