I'm using Pidgin as shipped with Red Hat 5.5. Pidgin identifies
as "Pidgin 2.6.6-2.el5_4".
When I try to log into our university's XMPP server, Pidgin fails
to connect claiming, "503: Service Unavailable." Co-workers
using identical installs on the same machine are able to log in
without problem

Thank you for all of the help! This proved the key clue:
