Hi, sorry for the delay in fixing this.
Your patch looks good and I have now fixed this in SVN as well. Will 
be in 1.0.18.

Hello,

We made a patch for gloox-1.0.16 to allow MUC messages with an empty 
body if they have any extensions to allow MUC MAM responses though the 
normal flow and trigger the handleMUCMessage callback.

Does this patch look sane? Does it have any obvious unintended side-effects?

Hi Jakob - Would it be possible to get some direction on this?  The 
"fix" is clear, we should allow messages through that don't have a 
body.  However, we're unclear if that's something that would break 
other use cases for the library.  Also, rather than maintain a fork, 
we'd like to see this in core.

Thanks,
Brian

Hello,

We are trying to write a custom StanzaExtension to request/receive MAM 
history for a MUC.

We are able to form the IQ stanza to request history from the room, and we see
Message stanzas returned and are able to parse the enclosed historic 
Message in newInstance(tag),
but the Message does not seem to be firing handleMUCMessage of the 
parent ClientBase.

Our code gets to line 1083 in mucroom.ccp (gloox 1.0.16) where it’s 
checking "else if( !msg.body().empty() )”.
The response outer message does not have a body itself, just an 
embedded stanza that has the archived body.
I think it’s dropping the message here.

Similar code is working to request 1to1 MAM history between two users, 
and fires
handleMessage of the parent ClientBase correctly.

Here is an an example MUC MAM request:
