 Every time I chat with someone (usually asian) and in Hong Kong, pidgin
 crashes...   This has been going on for years, and I finally ran the debug
 version and have some output for you guys...

 This happens to all my friends in Asia that run pidgin!

 As far as I know, this mainly happens on MSN.  I don't use pidgin for
 other networks, nor do my other Asian friends.
