If you're talking "Managed C++" you could include the SoapBox Studio in
your list. 

This is a very complete .Net XMPP SDK for doing just about everything in
XMPP land. 

At this point in time, there's really not any good reason to do C++
development in the Windows world. Microsoft has deployed .Net 2.0 very
well, and the increased development productivity mean you should really
be using .Net.

(Why anyone these days would develop in C or C++, regardless of
environment, is something I really don't understand. The modern
languages [.Net, Java, Ruby, Python, etc] are just so much better).

did you take a look at the libraries listed here:

Gloox is very popular for C++, and i don't think there is one which is 
using MSXML ;-)
