This comment has already been made about write-manager-file in Gabble and
Rakia.

Perhaps we could have it as a manual step, and just check in the resulting
manager files? It's not as if they change very often. If it can be automated
(as it can for CMs, but probably not for clients?), the regression tests could
sanity-check that it hasn't changed, perhaps?

One alternative way to get a manager/client file out, which is just as
problematic for cross-compiling but doesn't need D-Bus or Python, would be to
have a C API to write it out, and activate it via a command-line option (like
dbus-daemon --introspect).
