On non-blocking sockets, gnutls-boot no longer waits for the connection
to complete.  But if you try to talk to it before it's completed, it
should block the communication until that has happened, so what function
is it that gets that return value?

Anyway, there should be a way to specify that you want TLS negotiation
to complete even on non-blocking sockets, so I've now added this to the
trunk.  It should probably fix your use case, too.

Could you try updating from git and running jabberd again?
