Well here is a patch which fixes this bug but I don't like it.

Really, it's pretty crazy that the presence cache is responsible for
remembering nicknames which we got from a message. Given that we already have
like 75 different alias sources, I think a better approach would probably be to
make GabbleImFactory stash them, rather than having these weird interactions
with presence.
