This should fix another crash I've seen. We weren't correctly cancelling the proxy connect when we destroyed the servconn because we were only calling msn_servconn_disconnect() if we had actually connected. So always call msn_servconn_disconnect() from msn_servconn_destroy() and let the disconnect function deal with only closing stuff that is actually open. Here's the backtrace: #0 0x0000000000000000 in ??
