#11110: Pidgin appears to leak DNS for Jabber accounts

Comment(by datallah):
I think what you're seeing is a timing issue.
When connecting directly fails, the `_xmppconnect` TXT record lookup
occurs to see if alternative connection methods are available.
You'll see a `"Couldn't connect directly to %s. Trying to find
alternative connection methods, like BOSH.\n"` message in the debug log
when this is happening.
