Package: pidgin
Version: 2.4.3-1
Followup-For: Bug #445748

This bug is reproducible reliably for me by connecting to an etch
jabber server with pidgin and then restarting the remote jabber server
with /etc/init.d/jabber restart.  pidgin then becomes unresponsive,
not refreshing any of its windows, and strace shows the same poll loop
with EAGAIN errors as were reported in the original bug report.

I was bringing up a new jabber server this evening, and this bug happened
every time I restarted the jabber server.

At a guess, not having looked at the code, the EOF is somehow not being
handled correctly at the network layer.
