One of the people on the channel came up with the patch above,
I've rebuilt the package with it and tested that locally and 
the crash no longer happens with the patch applied.

The person who made the patch will be filing an issue in the upstream
Pidgin bug tracker and getting the patch included upstream.

If you want to rebuild the package yourself, these instructions should
work and for the package modification step, run the commands below:

   cd pidgin-*/
   wget -O debian/patches/spellchk.patch https://termbin.com/0h58
   echo spellchk.patch >> debian/patches/series

Afterwards you can install the .deb packages using either of these:

   apt install ./foo.deb
   dpkg -i foo.deb
