While I cannot answer the above question, here is an alternative to Xchat.

I use Skype, which is both a computer-to-telephone and computer-to-computer 
chat program.  It offers both talk and typed chat as well as 
computer-to-telephone in the US & Canada until 2007 for free.  I use Skype 
in Novell's SuSE Linux 9.3 and it works quite well.  It is an easy download 
and there are installs for both Windows and Linux.
