 Pidgin 2.5.5 emerged from Gentoo Linux's portage (and running under kernel
 2.6.28.1 compiled for AMD64) always crashes trying to double-click an MSN
 contact to open a conversation window. This happens only and always for a
 specific contact, while I can successfully talk to other MSN contacts in
 my list. The problem is reproducible.

 Here's the gdb trace:

Comment(by deryni):

 This issue is caused by a third party plugin.  We have no control over
 these plugins.  Please report this problem to the authors of this third
 party plugin.

 This is caused by the pidgin-encryption plugin (or whatever other plugin
 provides encrypt.so in case that isn't it).
