[Bug 94278] gaim seems to crash randomly

[Richard Brooklyn]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: gaim

Gaim seems to crash fairly randomly on my edgy set-up. It sometimes
crashes when I'm not even there.

It does, however crash a lot more frequently with one specific contact
more than any other. I only ever use gaim for MSN conversation only. The
other contact has the 'offical' MSN client ("Windows live messenger"
these days, right?). It seems that every line this contact tries to send
me tends to cause gaim to segfault. gaim doesn't even show the said line
in it's window before it crashes, and there is nothing in the logs to
show anything was ever said to me. So my hunch is that something is
going wrong between my contact pressing enter, and gaim trying to show
the message.

Version: 1:2.0.0+beta3.1-1ubuntu9

I shall attach a backtrace. This is the very first backtrace I've ever
done. Hopefully it's of some use with this frustrating bug.
