I also had it group 4 messages from a user that were of the form:

Here I am: http://ur1.ca/1234
Here I am: http://ur1.ca/1x23
Here I am: http://ur1.ca/1a3c
Here I am: http://ur1.ca/1fdg

The only thing different was the url.

Changed in gwibber:
importance:	Undecided → Medium
status:	New → Confirmed

The problem arises because gwibber strips out all urls before deciding if it should stack or not.

This patch should solve it.
