#2775: New Pidgin duplicates buddies in AIM

 When using the new Pidgin 2.1.1, I noticed some buddies were duplicated
 (exact same name but appearing in different groups). I checked blist.xml
 and Pidgin seems to be adding the second name on its own as older versions
 used the exact same blist.xml with no problems. This is a problem because
 when I removed one of the two names in Pidgin, apparently the AIM server
 correctly had only one name so it resulted in the buddy being removed
 completely whereas I just wanted to get rid of the Pidgin duplicate.

 I'm using Pidgin 2.1.1 on Windows. This was definitely working in Gaim
 beta 6, and I think it was ok in 2.1.0 also although I didn't specifically
 look for it.
