Comment (by glasserc):

 It looks like what's happening is that on long away messages,
 aim_info_extract gets a  TLV with type 0x001d that has a long length (over
 255), but because length is only 8 bits, it gets some weird number and
 calculates a bogus endpos. Then, after the inner loop is over, it saves
 the bogus endpos, which ends up being in the middle of the available
 message. This then messes up the aim_tlvlist_read call in userinfo.
