Update:

To eliminate the crash caused by the first of the two proposed changes in
117133, I have backed that out.  I still have the second change in place.

In order to find that there is a resource available, in the resource
search code immediately above piers first proposed change, after the check
for "jingle"

Existing code (on three lines per coding standard:
   if (resources->cap->jingle) { break; }

I have added a test that first ensures that resources->resource is
non-zero (don't want to introduce another similar bug) and then checks to
see if it begins with either "TalkGadget" or "android"

if (resources->resource && (strncmp(resources->resource, "TalkGadget", 10)
== 0
                            || strncmp(resources->resource, "android",
7))) {
    break;
}

It works; my client is happy but NERVOUS; his client is operational.

But I don't think this is ready to be turned into a patch.

How do we decide the RIGHT thing to do to determine how to support
Google's clients?  It seems to me (as I said above) that the RIGHT place to
make this work is in res_jabber, and we should probably either set "jingle
capable" and/or some other flag that gets tested in chan_jabber.  But I
don't know what, if any, real standardization is being done; Google may
just be "doing whatever they want" with no intention of "allowing"
interoperability with Asterisk or any other jabber clients.
