#10773: MSN display name is not remembered

This problem appeared recently without migrating to a newer version of
Pidgin, so possibly it's an issue with the MSN servers or a protocol
change. Whenever I set a display name for my account (aka friendly name),
the change is applied. I have verified this via another client having my
primary MSN account as a contact. But after logging out and logging in
again, the display name is lost and it falls back to the default (my login
e-mail address).
The issue is present with the latest 2.6.3 in Linux as well as 2.5 in
Windows. In addition, other users in my contact list known to use
libpurple-based clients (like Adium) are affected by the same problem.
