 Pidgin has been crashing, without an error or corefile, randomly.

 I'm running Pidgin 2.6.4 on Ubuntu Karmic Koala with Gnome 2.28.1.

Comment(by rekkanoryo):

 This is actually not a crash, but instead an abort.  I've been getting
 these recently on Debian sid as well.  The backtrace is incomplete, but in
 this case it probably doesn't matter for us since it's not crashing in our
 code.
