#14796: finch sometimes spins CPU forever when manually IMing someone in AIM

 Reporter:  rincebrain           |     Owner:  sadrul
     Type:  defect               |    Status:  new   
Component:  finch (gnt/ncurses)  |   Version:  2.10.0
 Keywords:                       |  
---------------------------------+------------------------------------------
 Just as the title says - sometimes, when I am attempting to IM someone
 via Options -> Send IM, literally as soon as I tab/right arrow to the
 Account selection box from the freetext input of a username, it will start
 burning 100% CPU and never* respond to any other input.

 I have a coredump without symbols, which is rather useless for you, so
 I'll attach a forced coredump (SIGABRT via kill) the next time this
 occurs, as I've rebuilt with symbols.

 This bug is present on both 2.7.3 (the version present in Debian stable)
 and 2.10.0.

 * - user left it running for hours and it did not move.
