If you set, and export, MALLOC_CHECK_=2 and then re-run pidgin, does the backtrace change? Do you have any accounts other than MSN enabled? Is there any chance this could be a duplicate of bug #390901 ?
The information we've requested above is required in order to review this problem report further and diagnose/fix the issue if it is still present. Since there have not been any updates to the report since thirty (30) days or more since we requested additional information, we're assuming the problem is either no longer present in the current Fedora release, or that there is no longer any interest in tracking the problem. Setting status to "INSUFFICIENT_DATA". If you still experience this problem after updating to our latest Fedora release and can provide the information previously requested, please feel free to reopen the bug report. Thank you in advance.
