 I am pretty sure Pidgin is crashing from a buddies long Status message for
 the following reasons:

 My buddy list setting is: Buddies>Show>Buddy details checked.  My friends
 name is on the lower end of the buddy list, so I have to scroll down to
 view his name.  Once It reaches his name, Pidgin crashes.  I set Buddy
 details unchecked, and scroll down to his name, and it does not crash.
 But as soon as I set it back to show buddy details, and his name is shown,
 it crashes.  I deleted his name from my buddy list, then changed settings
 to show buddy details, scrolled up and down on the list, and no crash.  I
 then added his name back, scrolled down to his name, with buddy details
 shown, and it crashes.  How do I fix this problem?  (Note: This is not
 from a long profile, it s from a long Status message).
