	This is the main and most important class; it represents a msn
	instance.

	It's, afaik, nonblocking (not through setblocking() but mainly because
	it forces a select() i/o model (which you would probably have used
	anyway, unless you think async/signal io worths the mess for a stupid
	messenger protocol, or you are a thread freak)), then the reads should
	always succed. Note that we sanely assume that writes do not block.

	Yes yes, you can use poll() too =)

	The only blocking call is the login() which is in charge of doing the
	initial connection and setup, all the rest are cpu bound.

	Once you have created an instance you should assign an email and a
	password at least, then do the login and i recommend you to call sync
	after that (and everyonce in a while doesn't hurt either). Finally you
	change your status and you're ready to idle.

	Oh, and don't forget to set the callbacks: they are the most important
	part, they are the ones which allow you to control the protocol and
	make this useful.

	They are completely asyncronous, are driven by the read method, and
	never block. A special care should be taken if you use threads (which
	you shouldn't need, that was the whole idea behind this), because
	there is not a single lock on these lines, and it will remain that way.

	There is an example (a very bad one, but you'll see how it would work)
	that should have come with this file; also the callback file has good
	working code.
