OOH! I think I found the cause of a bug! I changed this function in revision eadc83c534fbbc673a6876ddb1e0bdac8428c07b to try to make it cleaner. When I did that, I added a break here when I should have added a continue. The result is that if we encounter a non-utf8 name for an item in your server side buddy list then we bail out earlier and don't add any server stored buddies to your local list. That's bad. I think this caused a lot of people to not see their complete buddy list. This probably affected ICQ users a lot more than AIM users, because ICQ users tend to use more 3rd party IM clients, and 3rd party IM clients sometimes put non-utf8 text in the name field of these items when they shouldn't. Hopefully fixes #13386

This program calls purple API functions using DBus and prints the return value.
If you are not interested in the return value, use purple-send-async.

Usage:

   $0 method-name type1:parameter1 type2:parameter2 ...

This shell script just invokes dbus-send, see man dbus-send for how 
to specify the parameters.  

Examples:

   $0 PurpleAccountsFindConnected string: string:prpl-jabber
   $0 PurpleAccountsGetAll
   $0 PurpleCoreQuit

Use dbus-viewer to get the list of supported functions and their parameters.
