Yes, they've made some improvements, but there are still problems.

(First, if anyone besides me cares, Zephyr support is still broken.   
It *looks* like a trivial fix -- they use the wrong option to the  
configure script for libpurple -- but I haven't had time to actually  
test that.)

It appears that I need to specify the "connect host" of  
jabber.mit.edu, *and* use my password, to sign on to our main jabber  
server.  Once I do that, I get in okay.  If I don't have a connect  
host specified, I'm repeatedly prompted for my password as if I'd  
given an incorrect one.  So, GSSAPI authentication still seems to be  
a no-go, but I can sign on with the latest version much like with  
1.1.4.  I'm not sure why omitting the connect host causes even  
password authentication to break...
