#13391: Some user icons can crash pidgin under Windows.

Comment(by gushi):
Okay, this is now confirmed. There is one specific user on my buddy list
with a "toxic icon", and it is the last icon loaded in the most recent
debug file.
Having GTK attempt to display this icon leads to the crash. GTK version
is 2.14.6 rev A.
If I tell pidgin not to display extended status in the buddy list, the
system connects fine. I am able to hover my mouse over every other user
just fine. Hovering my mouse over this one person crashes it, the system
goes unresponsive and dr watson shows up a few moments later.
In case this turns out to be more widely exploitable, I'm not going to
upload the icon to this bug, but if you give me an email address, I can
mail it (or tell you the AIM name to contact).
