When I say vanish I mean all open chat windows, buddy list and even the icon in the status bar at the top of the screen. I have run gdm on this however when pidgin vanished and I had to quit running pidgin to get back to the (gdb) line then the buddy list just appeared but was hanging in an unresponsive state. I got the backtrace and will attach it to this ticket.
