Bug Description

Binary package hint: empathy

With 9.10, when empathy is opened it will crash - i have MSN, GTalk and AOL as accounts. it will open and close repeatedly for several minutes and finally open correctly. it was 100% functional before the updates on Aug31. I think there were some telepathy updates.
