Comment(by IWorkInPixels):

 QuLogic, not true.  If you read the comment above by nargles, one of the
 symptoms is that once you've added the affected buddies, they appear
 offline.  My experience here is that if you add them yourself in addition
 to accepting their request (per nargles' post), they will appear online...
 until the next time you restart Pidgin, when you will have to add them
 again for them to appear online.

 This is persistent in 2.7.11, as mikaelj said.
