Pidgin portable crashes when GTK+ theme is not MS-Windows

[Art_S]

1) Edit PidginPortable?\App\GTK\etc\gtk-2.0\gtkrc, set gtk-theme-name to anything but MS-Windows, say gtk-theme-name = "Emacs"

2) Re-start pidgin

3) Pidgin crashes with message: "AppName?: pidgin-portable.exe AppVer?: 2.5.6.0 ModName?: libcairo-2.dll ModVer?: 0.0.0.0 Offset: 0001f5e8"

That file is not particularly useful to us. But since I'm pretty sure "emacs" is not a valid theme the fact that it crashes is unfortunate but not particularly surprising. Feel free to get a pidgin crash report and attach if you'd like though.

It's not Emacs specific, all other default themes are also causing the crash.

However, I was not able to reproduce it on non-portable version of pidgin, which works fine with other themes.

The portable-apps version or pidgin made portable via our directions in the FAQ?

And like I said, my concern was that Emacs is not a GTK+ theme, it is a GTK+ key theme, those are not the same thing.
