Uh, I don't know what a "protocol handler" is, nor I care were fixes
have to be written. As a user, what is broken is Empathy. It has a bug:
I have a proxy, Empathy does not work.

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: empathy

  Empathy wont connect to any major service trough a proxy. I've tried Google Talk, Jabber, MSN and Yahoo.
  I set the proxy preferences in GNOME, it's a plain proxy for all protocols, without authentication.

  Pidgin works normally in the same setup.

  Ubuntu 8.10, Empathy 2.24.1
