	Though I've been a bit offline lately, I'm usually an MSN user, so  
I'd be glad to do some day-to-day testing (probably nothing too fancy  
due to a serious lack of time) if I were provided with a libpurple- 
official-msnp15 enabled Adium build. I could also build locally  
(Leopard OS here), but... is the latest, msnp15 enabled libpurple  
already in Adium's svn? If so, how would I go about switching between  
msn-pecan and libpurple-msnp15?
