Strange behavior since Hangouts went to Chat

[Eion Robb]

Hmm. That's really strange. There's been some issues related to the 429
errors that can make it reconnect and download history again, but it
normally has the right time on it, not the current time.

To completely avoid the question, I'm working on a new plugin for Google
Chat at https://github.com/EionRobb/purple-googlechat Efforts are focused
more on getting the new one working rather than fixing the old one, sorry.

Cheers,
Eion
