Comment(by erroneus):

 I think I may also be experiencing this bug or one similar.  The
 conditions to reproduce are rather particular for me though.  It is as
 follows. (note that my router reboots itself every night at 2am)

 1. I leave pidgin running all day and night with multiple accounts active
 2. New [MSN] Email notification must have come in prior to 2am but not
 acknowledged.
 3. 2am strikes and the router reboots and pidgin reconnects to the
 accounts automatically.
 4. More new [MSN] Email notifications come in
 5. In the morning, usually around 6 - 7, I check the email notifications
 6. Close the email notifications window
 7. Segfault

 I have experienced this problem for a very long time and I might have
 attempted to report it long ago when the project was called GAIM.  This
 bug reporting stuff is often overly burdensome on end users who are
 frequently not technically inclined and/or detail oriented.  I was running
 Fedora 32 bit originally more than two years ago though presently, I am
 running Fedora 10 64 bit. (Will upgrade to Fedora 11 today or soon)
