Okay, all of these should be fixed. A few notes for the curious:

I was wrong; you do get roster pushes when you add yourself to your
roster. jwgc just mostly ignored roster pushes.

I wound up just taking the patch for this one.

I also noticed that "jwrite yourself" is supposed to actually work, by
virtue of a partial match on your own JID, but there was a second bug
there. I fixed that.
A third bug is that the partial matcher is too aggressive; "foo" will
match "foobar@mit.edu". I didn't fix that for now, but it may come up
as an issue later.

This turned out to be easier than I thought. I simply took away the
retry state for auth errors, and made jwgc display a message and exit
instead.
