That's fine - that's the way I thought I'd left it! Sorry, I though  
that was a (moderately) new patch - the [gaim-commits] and CVS should  
have given it away, I guess.

Basically, we don't use a SASL security layer when we've got a SSL  
secured link. This isn't entirely ideal (as it fails to bind the SASL  
authentication to the underlying transport encryption), but avoids  
the problems of chaining the SASL and SSL encryption layers together.

Cheers,

Simon
