I found[1] the undocumented incompatibility with the change to gabble 
0.9.17 and the addition of GabbleServerTLS* classes. I verified this 
issue by enabling syslog output on my phone and saw the same messages 
from the email thread. I attempted to run a 5.7.12 mission-control from 
Maemo 6 sources on my N900 but it caused the Maemo 5 mission control 
server to not run. Maemo 5 uses 5.2.7. I have not debugged the reason 
why it won't run, yet.

Trying 0.9.16 results in TLS cert errors. The syslog shows this message:
wocky_tls_session_verify_peer: wocky-openssl.c:1012: setting ssl verify 
flags level to: WOCKY_TLS_VERIFY_NORMAL
Gabble <=0.9.15 (and .17) were using WOCKY_TLS_VERIFY_LENIENT. Forcing 
lenient allows me to connect to Gtalk. I then applied the 
gtalk-workaround patches[2] to 0.9.16 and now I can make video/voice 
calls with Gtalk clients and my N900. Voice/video calls seem to work if 
people call my phone, but I cannot call out (phone says "busy" or 
"cannot make connection"). The performance during video calls is worse 
than I remember. I cannot keep a video call going for more than a minute 
and even then the video is very choppy and blurred. Voice calls seem to 
perform normally. I'm not satisfied about the version of gabble either 
as the version I had to settle with is old and possibly full of other 
issues.

Any comments and/or recommendations about my adventure would be welcome.
