 I'm not sure if this is an issue with Pidgin or Yahoo servers.

 Happens sometimes, but not always. But when it happens, it happens
 consistently for  many hours, at least.

 Scenario : log in, be available.
 Change status to "away". Partners see no change in your status.
 (tested both with myself in the list and with partners using Yahoo 8 or
 9).
 Change status to some text. Same result.
 Change status to Busy. Sometimes this is seen by partners, but not always.
 Change status to available again. If Busy was seen by partners, now they
 also see your current status.

 Change status to away. Partners see no change.
 Go offline. Partners see you go offline.
 Go online, to status away. Partners see you as "away".
 Sometimes, further status changes, after this log-out/log-in sequence, are
 seen correctly, but not always.

 Sometimes status changes are seen correctly many minutes after the change.

 More details : [[BR]]
 When status changes are seen properly, this is seen in debug window :
 {{{
 (22:54:37) prefs: /purple/savedstatus/default changed, scheduling save.
 ....
 (22:54:37) blist: Updating buddy status for xxxxxxxxxx (Yahoo)
 }}}
 However when status changes are not seen, the line saying "Updating status
 for xxxxxx" does not appear.

 Another details I've noticed in debug :
 {{{
 (22:54:37) yahoo: Unknown status key 317
 }}}
 This shows up at every status change, regardless what status is that, and
 when status changes are correctly visible to partners.
