I did not manage to start an OTR session with this branch.
The '/otr start' command was displaying "OTR:$blob" in empathy-chat.

I did manage to start a session using Xavier's branch but noticed the following 
bug:
- Start an OTR session between Empathy and Pidgin
- In Pidgin using the OTR menu pick "End private conversation"
- Try sending a message from Empathy. The message doesn't reach Pidgin and this 
error is displayed: "Your message was not sent because 
cassidy-te...@jabber.belnet.be closed their connection. Either close your 
private connection, or refresh it."

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: empathy

  Hello, 
  I just tried empathy (the Intrepid version) and it looked very solid and 
stable. There were a few minor things that could be improved (e.g. 
automatically resizing the contact list), but that is not the topic here.
  The reason why I won't switch to empathy from pidgin is the missing OTR 
support (http://www.cypherpunks.ca/otr/ ). This is a really important feature 
because no one should read your messages.
  There were others with the same idea (links at the bottom).
  Would be so great if it could support that important encryption standard.
  Thanks for helping out!
