 Actually I think firstly I should ask if Pidgin works with Perl 5.16.

 If it doesn't can you please add support for it. I have a Perl plugin that
 I really want to use (written by myself, just in case you need the code
 here is [http://gitorious.org/libpurple-kwallet-plugin/libpurple-kwallet-
 plugin/blobs/master/libpurple_kwallet_plugin.pl a link to it]). Thank you!

 If it does ... I have a bug to report: Pidgin crashes with the simplest
 Perl plugin, something like:

 {{{
 use Purple;

 our %PLUGIN_INFO = (
     perl_api_version => 2,
     name             => "test",
     load             => "test"
 );

 sub test() {
 }
 }}}

 With the {{{ use Purple; }}} line commented out it doesn't... could be
 something with the C to Perl interface.

 I attached the backtrace.
