Comment(by jidm):

 I had experienced a related issue. It occurred to me in Pidgin 2.6.5 over
 Gtalk(xmpp) protocol, and still occurs on 2.7.0

 My SO is Debian testing (squeeze)

 Steps i followed:

 1. Create a new group ''Foo Bar'' (name having two words separated by a
 space character)
 [[BR]]
 2. Add new buddy ''Buddy'' to existent group ''Others''
 [[BR]]
 3. Move ''Buddy'' to group ''Foo Bar''
 [[BR]]
 4. Restart Pidgin, and see ''Buddy'' still in group ''Others'' instead of
 in group ''Foo Bar''

 Observations:

 1. Moving ''Buddy'' to another existent group ''Family'', then restarting
 Pidgin, works as espected.
 [[BR]]
 2. Moving ''Buddy'' to group ''Foo Bar'', then renaming the group to
 ''FooBar'' (and optionally renaming it back to ''Foo Bar''), then
 restarting Pidgin, works as espected.
 [[BR]]
 3. It seems it only happens when moving buddies to empty groups when they
 are named with two or more words.

 In the middle of this writting, i could finally move the buddy by renaming
 the group name.
