Comment:

 Hmm, all these backtraces are different...  The line numbers are
 important.  Looking at the third backtrace, I don't quite understand how
 that crash could happen.  You're compiling this yourself, right?  Could
 you make sure that you're not compiling with optimization (without -O2,
 for example)?

 It might be helpful to run Pidgin in valgrind and check for memory errors.
 You can do something like this, and wait for it to crash:
 {{{
 valgrind --tool=memcheck pidgin 2> pidgin_valgrind.txt
 }}}

 Hopefully that log file and the backtrace from the associated core file
 would be useful.
