Comment(by hoffie):

 I am able to reproduce the problem as well.

 Replying to [comment:8 MarkDoliner]:
 > I'm still unable to reproduce this.  If you have exact steps to
 reproduce the problem I suspect I would be able to fix it.  Short of that,
 a new backtrace might help (but if the crash is due to memory corruption
 then it might be hard to get a good backtrace).

 Well, I don't know, if it reproduces the problem for you, but that's
 exactly what I did:

 My chat partner's setup: Kubuntu Karmic 64bit, Kubuntu's Pidgin 2.6.6
 (libpurple 2.6.6)
 My setup: Gentoo 64bit, Pidgin 2.6.6 (libpurple 2.6.6), but that shouldn't
 matter

   1. I am invisible, my chat partner changes his status from offline to
 online
   2. I'm sending a message to my partner
   3. The partner replies
   4. I send yet another message
   5. My partner's pidgin instance has crashed

 So.. the problem happens on my chat partner's machine, on mine it is not
 reproducible (might be related to the Ubuntu built or specific pidgin
 settings).
 I'll upload a complete backtrace in a minute, in the hope it will be
 helpful.
 If you need any more information, I'll happily try to provide it.
