[gaim-migrate @ 5221] this saves the blist.xml file to an alternate name, and then moves it, that way we don't lose your precious buddies if gaim crashes. Of course, if gaim were to crash, it wouldn't be gaim's fault, it would be the fault of some external force. This is because gaim is perfect, and Sean is perfect. Yeah. This should be done for .gaimrc too, but i'm too tired to do that right now. committer: Tailor Script <tailor@pidgin.im>
