[Wocky] Progress on gaim chatroom configuration bug

[Greg Hudson]

I have figured out what is happening with the gaim chatroom
configuration bug
(http://mailman.mit.edu/pipermail/wocky/2005-September/000042.html).
Essentially, gaim's SSL framework is prone to connection stalling when
the server sends it more than 4095 bytes of data at a time.  The code
gets into a state where there is data waiting in the SSL decryption
buffer, but no callback is generated to read that data.

The fix is not obvious; I have kicked the matter up to the gaim-devel
list to ask for advice.  Since it will take time for a fix to reach
the downloadable clients anyway, we might want to tweak the server so
that it generates less than 4095 bytes of data in response to a
chatroom configuration query.  Right now it is generating 4135 bytes,
so we'd only have to cut 40 bytes or so.
