#11986: Separate HTTP and IM proxy servers no longer work in 2.7.0

 I upgraded my corporate laptop to 2.7.0 from 2.6.6, I can no longer
 connect to Yahoo, and I can't find a place to re-download to 2.6.6.

 I get an error that says "Unable to connect: The server returned an empty
 response."

 My corporate LAN uses separate HTTP and IM proxy servers.  The HTTP proxy
 obviously handles HTTP traffic and a separate SOCKS5 proxy handles IM
 traffic.

 This was a problem in an earlier version of Pidgin, and I believe it was
 fixed in 2.6.3 or 4 and worked all the way up through 2.6.6, and now it no
 longer works in 2.7.0.
