[jdev] Sending nickname in subscription presence to gtalk users doesn't work

[Daniel Dormont]

I've run into the same problem. I can't reproduce it this second because
I'm getting a remote-server-not-found error for any outgoing Google stuff
at the moment, but looking at my roster in my own Gmail account I see the
bare JID, not the nick, of the account that sent that subscription to me.
