I, for now, simply changed error_t to int in the source, as it only occurs
like two times.

To applet.h, add  #include <argp.h>

Also, in gtkicq.c, use the following line for gnome_init:

      gnome_init( "gtkicq", "0.57", argc, argv );

Unfortunately, this makes it so it no longer parses arguments, but I'm
working on fixing that.  If someone would please tell me how to update the
source on CVS to match MY source, I'll update CVS to 0.57, but I'm not
very knowledgable when it comes to CVS :-(  Sorry.
