#8976: Creates hundreds of dialogs at startup - crash

From time to time, pidgin at startup starts displaying "so and so is not
on the server's list, do you want to keep it on your local list", for all
the entries that I have. This results in hundreds of dialog boxes to open
at once, hanging the entire Fedora 10. At the bottom of the screen, I can
see the open dialogs - hundreds of them, as thin little slices. If I wait
long enough, I can start a command line and enter killall -9 pidgin to
stop the madness.
Usually at the second launch, pidgin behaves, but I lose the messages or
events that might have happened while I was away - because I could not
read them and had to kill pidgin.
Version numbers are:
$ sudo rpm -q --all|grep pidgin
