[gaim-migrate @ 9397] From out of nowhere comes a zephyr fix from yours truely. If zephyr is the only account you sign on with, then the Gaim login window never disappears because previously there was no connection status dialog thingy. This fixes that. It would probably be good if this wasn't necessary. I might fix that a bit later. Like, maybe make sure the login window is hidden before the buddy list is drawn. committer: Tailor Script <tailor@pidgin.im>
