Login error: Parser: Memory allocation failure

[DrMcCoy]

Since late last year, since Steam had a big update in their Android App, and how they're doing Steam Guard (with a QR code, etc.), bitlbee-steam doesn't let me login anymore. It aborts with:

23:13:44 <@root> steam - Logging in: Connecting
23:13:44 <@root> steam - Logging in: Requesting authentication key
23:13:44 <@root> steam - Login error: Parser: Memory allocation failure
23:13:44 <@root> steam - Logging in: Signing off..
