#8186: Crash from very long buddy "status" message

 My buddy list is set up so that it shows buddy details: Buddies>Show>Buddy
 Details and when I scroll down to reveal one of my friends which is below
 the viewing area when started up, as soon as it shows his name, Pidgin
 crashes.  To confirm my theory, I changed the settings so my buddy list
 does not show Buddy Details.  Then I removed him from my buddy list.
 Changed settings back to reveal Buddy Details, and Pidgin no longer
 crashes. I added him back to the buddy list, still with no Buddy Details
 showing, the window does not crash.  But as soon as I change the setting
 to show Buddy Details, it crashes.  He has a very long "Status" message
 set on his account.  (Note: His profile is not long, rather, his status
 message is long).
