Comment(by smcv):

 Presence Service doesn't compare strings, it compares Telepathy handles.
 In Gabble these represent JIDs (public-key hashes, basically) on the
 server, so people are never compared by name. In Salut handles represent
 _presence._tcp service names; in versions where #3683 still exists, these
 are derived from the nickname and the .local hostname, and in versions
 where that bug has been fixed they're based on the public-key hash and the
 .local hostname. So there's no approximate comparison, and no assumption
 that nicknames are a unique identifier, in PS.

 As always, the PS tab in the devel console will tell you what the PS is
 thinking. If that's right, but the neighbourhood view is wrong, then it's
 Sugar's fault; if both are wrong, it's PS's fault.

 I tried setting my jhbuild's nickname to "SMcV (with a ô to test #4009)"
 and I don't see this problem...
