Cool. Though I don't need it yet, is there anonymous access to the svn
repository? I thought I had found the CVS repository, but that was a
different project. The latter did provide me with the stanza patch for
0.7-pre1, though.

That ought to work.
It should be easy enough. One just needs the necessary accessors to be
able to get the value of Connection::m_socket. One in Connection and one
in ClientBase. It could result in spurious alerts (incomplete, ignored,
internally handled stanzas), but that is much better than having to wait
for a timeout to elapse to do other work.
Too bad I've already done the work to make threading work, but if I
decide to handle TLS certs, I'll have to ditch threading (or increase
code complexity considerably); so this will come in very handy.
Actually, I may as well ditch the threading now and add the
aforementioned accessors to my copy of the code, planning to change to
whatever mechanism you instrument when I upgrade gloox.

Ok, cool. That's the sort of answer I was looking for.
