 Replying to [comment:2 MarkDoliner]:
 > That backtrace doesn't make a whole lot of sense to me... most of those
 functions don't call each other.  I'm not really sure what would cause
 this.
 We have a coupla theories:
 {{{
 1rst: since my router has upnp enabled while his has not,
 "aim_im_sendch2_sendfile_requestdirect" (direct send) should NOT be
 involved....
 so maybe there's something wrong in pidgin's behaviour about that that
 might cause the crash.
 }}}
 or
 {{{
 2nd: since it only happens after a while I'm logged in,
 probably when I login pidgin does not have the external ip address
 (it's waiting for the router to give it), so I can send fine
 because it goes via the aol server.
 But once I have been logged for a while,
 upnp has kicks in and tries to be used in the file transfer, causing the
 crash.
 }}}
 What do you think about that? Have you been able to reproduce it?
