Thanks for your bug. Could you get a backtrace with libglib2.0-0-dbg libc6-dbg installed and a lot with "gaim -d"?

[Guillermo Gutiérrez (capitanterrex)]

Maybe this ocurrs because the buddy name of a msn contact with unicodes chars ¿?
I think that when this person is not logged at my startup the problem disappears.

Here it is (gdb --args gaim -d):

What kind of chars does the nickname have?

[Sebastien Bacher (seb128)]

That has been tracked as a libc/locale bug, marking as duplicate of #28640
