Gaim crashes on protocol disconnect

Bug Description

Binary package hint: gaim

It seems as if when the IM server (AOL, MSN, Jabber) goes away for some reason, gaim has a tendency to crash. I believe this is probably an issue with 2.0 beta, because this is version 2.0.0beta3.1, and I have 2.0.0beta6 at home, and they both exhibit similar behavior. Will attempt to attach 'problem report for gaim' as instructed by what I assume is a gnome generated dialog/helper.
