Non of these two files have to be edited.

Since version 1.4.4 of jabberd14 you do not run jabberd where you 
compiled, but you do a "make install" to copy all needed files to the 
location where you want them to be. (You selected this with the 
--prefix=/path switch of the configure script.)
At the make install step, your jabber.xml.dist file is installed and if 
it does not yet exist copied to the jabber.xml file, which is then 
actually used by your jabberd.

If you want to know the default location for the jabber.xml 
configuration file, run jabberd with the option "-v" (e.g. "jabberd -v").
