Comment (by datallah):

 Your analysis is exactly right - this wont occur anymore in the case where
 there are both an IPv6 and an IPv4 address announced because Pidgin will
 now only listen for IPv4 connections.

 However, I think the same issue will still occur in the case with multiple
 IPv4 IPs advertising the same presence.

 I'm not sure what the best way to fix this is.

 Should we not try to use the resolved IP to determine who the incoming
 message is from? I don't particularly like the idea of just using the
 stream's "from" attribute to identify who is talking to us.
