That could have been true, but I've been doing otr (v2 obviously) with
this person for years, and not having trouble.

I just picked someone else, and tried to initiate.   That person shows
(in pidgin) as being logged in only once.  I got

(11:52:08) Error setting up private conversation: Malformed message received

same as before.   It would be nice to print out the malformed message,
but I don't know how (other than reading the source and changing the
code).

It seems to be, at least with this person. setting otr to 'use default'
fixes the problem.  unchecking 'use default' and then unchecking
'enable' makes the OTR menu go away.  But then selecting someone else's
tab and then coming back makes the OTR menu re-appear, with the wrong
jid.
