 PidGin version 2.4.2
 Windows 2000 Sp4 + rollup patches (Sp5)

 Select a Yahoo buddy, press F2, edit the alias.
 Exiting the edit, crashes with "Instruction 0x78001d0b referenced memory
 at 0x00000000 ...." ... seems a nice NULL pointer dangling around.

 Same happens if instead of pressing F2 I choose "alias..." from right
 click menu.

 AOL buddies can be edited fine.
 Editing the Aliases from the XML file, with the program stopped, works
 fine.
