Thanks for taking the time to submit this patch, unfortunately Gwibber has gone through extensive changes recently and your patch no longer applies to the latest codebase.
Fortunately, the bug you were attempting to fix is no longer present in the current codebase. The gwibber-service backend has been radically overhauled, and renamed to friends-service. The new friends-service is using libsoup, which allows us to honor the GNOME proxy settings transparently.
Please try out the latest Gwibber, I think you'll be quite pleased with what we've accomplished.
