I think it might be useful if you recompile like this, make clean make fake 2>&1 | /usr/ports/infrastructure/build/portslogger /tmp and send (or place online and send URL for) the resulting /tmp/pidgin*.log so it can be diffed with the log from a build producing broken files. What's happening is that for some reason the path to libymsg.so.0.0 is not making it into the libraries (libyahoo, etc) - as shown by objdump -p it's a bare filename; with a version that does work, a path including purple-2 is listed instead. There's an evil hack of symlinking purple-2/libymsg.so.0.0 into /usr/local/lib, it works but it absolutely shouldn't be needed.
