 Pidgin Backtrace #4 bug report

 Segfault Occurs when Receiving IM with Pidgin Out of Focus and Buddy
 Window Closed

 Hi,
 So as the summary states, Pidgin will consistently segfault whenever this
 one buddy of mine IMs me (has worked in the past with other buddies) and
 Pidgin is out of focus and I don't have an open IM window with the buddy.
 FWIW, the IM window will flash on the screen for a fraction of a second
 before everything disappears and pidgin has segfaulted.

 I'm attaching a backtrace, complete with the (partially redacted) output
 of Pidgin running with the '-d' tag.

 I run Ubuntu and this issue seems to have begun with my upgrade from Lucid
 Lynx to Maverick Meerkat.  (In this upgrade, Pidgin, as well as all sorts
 of other programs were pushed to their newest versions.)  This is
 occurring in version 2.7.3 as well as the latest 2.7.5 from the PPA. (The
 backtrace is from the former as I thought to check 2.7.5 only after
 spending a bunch of time redacting all the personal info, but let me know
 if you really need one against the latest.)

 Let me know if you need any more info from me to help with this bug.

 Thanks a lot,
 Mike
