Comment(by cdcd):

 i experience error with libxmpp.so also. removing libxmpp solves the
 problem. so the problem is definitely in libxmpp. i'm running libpurple
 from under the purple-python wrapper using the nullclient.py exampe
 provided.
 the backtrace points to some place in cython-created c-file

 that can of course is library related but still it occurs only at
 libxmpp.so. normal pidgin runs well.
