Note that the debug log doesn't even mention anything about ssl or
certificates, at least when trying to connect to a jabber server that
requires TLS. Just a generic "network error" message is given which
seems to imply a TCP/IP problem. So no users will know that they have to
go Edit -> Accounts -> Advanced -> "Ignore SSL certificate errors"
unless they are psychic.

Also, if you go to google and start typing "empathy jabber", the only
autocompletion that google gives is "empathy jabber network error", with
16,000 hits.

Anyway, the link to the upstream bug is
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=606535
