Comment (by mmayhew):

 Sometimes it DOES NOT segfault.  Sometimes it just throws this output in
 gdb:


 {{{
 (gdb) run
 Starting program: /opt/gnome/bin/pidgin
 Failed to read a valid object file image from memory.
 [Thread debugging using libthread_db enabled]
 [New Thread -1224272176 (LWP 9263)]
 /opt/gnome/bin/pidgin: symbol lookup error: /opt/gnome/bin/pidgin:
 undefined symbol: purple_presence_get_buddy

 Program exited with code 0177.
 (gdb) bt full
 No stack.
 (gdb)
 }}}

 This happens when I try to open an IM window.  Other times it segfaults
 resulting in the backtrace I've attached.
