[jdev] c/c++ libraries for xmpp client

I'm looking for advice on c/c++ libraries for xmpp clients. My order
of important issues, roughly...

1. Ease of porting - the fewer library dependencies the better.
2. Functionality - the more xmpp capabilities the better.
3. Ease of API - the simpler to use from application code the better.
4. C vs.C++ - I'd prefer a C code base, but C++ is ok - the more
C-like the API, the better.

I am aware of, but have never tried:
* purple
* loudmouth
* iksemel

And so if you have specific experience to share about these, all the better.

Thanks
-Patrick
