This should be fixed in Gaim SVN. I rewrote a bunch of oscar file transfer and direct IM stuff a little while ago, but it's not in a released version yet. The fix should be in beta 4.

Good question. Mostly I think we're just waiting for Sean. He said he had a few things he wanted to finish.

I can confirm this with ICQ. Crash file with debugging symbols included.

I can reproduce it like that: I send a file to a person, the person does not click Accept or Decline. After some time gaim crashes.
