You might want to check out kopete. It'll handle just about any
messenger format at once. Really nifty, I highly recommend it. I think
it's in kdnetwork so you might already have it installed. I'll handle
webcams, photo icons. Nifty, Ric

Uhh... yeah, that's what Gaim does too...  Thanks for the tip, Ric,
but I'm afraid that is in no way related to my question at hand.  Gaim
works fine, the issue is with a particular plugin, Guifications, that
shows status changes in little windows that pop up in the corner of
the screen (I believe "toaster plugin" is the technical term).  It
seems something is wrong in the FC6 package for Guifications and it
doesn't want to play with Gaim like it should.  Does no one else use
Guifications?  Hmm, maybe I'll just file a bug report...
