Make Perl and Tcl debug information in the About dialog based on runtime information (the Perl and Tcl plugins being present) instead of compile time information. This should be more accurate. I don't know how this affects statically linked plugins (is that even possible for these plugins?).

For information on writing a plugin for Purple, Pidgin or Finch, go
http://developer.pidgin.im and click on API.  From there, see the HOWTOs in the
"Related Pages" section.

You can also generate this documentation locally by installing
doxygen and graphviz dot, then running "make docs" in the
source tree.  The documentation will be in the docs/html directory.
