Comment (by elb):

 Very interesting

 Do me a favor; run 'pidgin &' from the prompt as you normally would.  When
 it executes, you should get output like '[1] 10374'; the number following
 the number in brackets is the process ID of pidgin.  Go to a *different*
 terminal, and run 'gdb pidgin <pid>', where <pid> is the process ID
 printed in that message.  At the (gdb) prompt in that terminal, type
 'handle SIGPIPE nostop', and then 'continue'.  Having done this, exit the
 terminal from which you ran Pidgin; I'm betting the gdb will drop you back
 to a (gdb) prompt at that point; please paste whatever it says before it
 does so.

 Let me know if any of that does not make sense.
