I use iChat or AddiumX these days, but I want to say:

1) I don't remember, but I want to say no
2) Check the preferences

3) have your plugin print to STDERR in its init routine[1] and run
   gaim from a terminal (i.e. don't start it from an icon or a
   "Run..."dialog) and see if that output shows up there.  Barring
   that, open the controling terminal explicitly[2] and print to
   that instead.  Or both.


[1]  something like: print STDERR qq{I LIVE!\n};

[2]  open( TTY, "/dev/tty" ) or die "open tty: $!\n";
     print TTY qq{I LIVE!\n};
     close( TTY );
