Where did you come across this? There's a right way to do it. Other clients don't seem to have a problem with it. It's defined by JEP-0077. http://www.jabber.org/jeps/jep-0077.html If a client wants to know how to register it should send this:

<iq type='get' id='reg1'>
  <query xmlns='jabber:iq:register'/>
</iq>

If supported, the server will respond with precisely what fields are required to register. If there's an old method, it's no longer in the standards. If it comes down to it, the old method should be ignored if that's what it takes to support the new method.

I'm looking into this.  GAIM appears to be doing something wrong when
registering a jabber account.  I'm investigating exactly what that is,
but for now, the best I can suggest is to try a different client.


From the help folks:

     "yes. we can't handle xmpp registration because we don't know
     how to tell if a server supports that or the older
     registration"

Once registered (via another client), Gaim does allow you to log in, etc.
