Well, Yahoo has taken a pretty tough stance towards any outside IM forces.
As I understand it, they have started an internal transition towards a new
authentication mechanism with the intent of blocking 3rd-party clients (or
transports).  Slowly, but surely, I think we'll see all 3rd-party clients
blocked from using Yahoo.

It's very possible you will never get a patch. :)
