Comment(by cpommiss):

 Vista 64.  Brand new computer, fresh OS.  Pidgin never worked.

 Have same issue with 2.5.5 and bundled GTK.  Also tried 2.5.5 and 2.5.4
 with GTK 2.14.6 and 2.14.7 on both, and still get crash on startup.

 Cleaned system, installed 2.5.2 and GTK 2.14.7 from
 http://downloads.sourceforge.net/gtk-
 win/gtk2-runtime-2.14.7-2009-01-13-ash.exe?download

 Pidgin finally runs, though widgets look Linux-y, still very usable.
