Well, now Gaim ceases to function on a regular basis. Sometimes it dies
immediately as soon as it logs in. Sometimes it dies when I try to send a
message to somebody. Sometimes it will stay up for a while, but then die
unexpectedly, or when I try to open a second chat window.

I've uninstalled and reinstalled the RPM (at the time, it was most recent:
0.71--now it looks like 0.72 is out). Deleting my preferences (.gaim/ and
.gaimrc) worked for a little while, but now it's back to its old tricks.
Maybe I'll try upgrading to the most recent 0.72 RPM.

Any other suggestions?
