The backtrace contains no gaim functions so it's difficult to conclude
what happened exactly.  I would suggest you upgrade to gaim 2.0.0 beta 6
and the latest version of GTK+ for Windows and see if you can still
reproduce the crash.

Gaim is written in C, not C++.  We build with MinGW's gcc.  Windows
build information can be found at http://gaim.sf.net/win32/build.php
