I confirm this bug in empathy 2.30.2-0ubuntu1, on ubuntu 10.04.1 LTS.

steps to reproduce:
1. setup (add) a Jabber account in empathy (i.e. GTalk)
2. verify that you CANNOT connect to jabber server directly, without http_prxy (i.e. you can setup iptable rule to drop direct connections to jabber server)
3. set system proxy configuration
4. verify that you CAN connect to jabber server

If you cannot confirm this bug, I guess that your being behind the proxy is not enforced. It is usually enforced in many companies or campuses. So, if http proxy in your network is not obligatory, you may not confirming this bug correctly.
If you need some more details to confirm this bug I'll be happy to help.
