I can. :(

I've currently got the following packages matching '*pidgin*' installed:
ii pidgin 2.10.11-1 amd64 graphical multi-protocol
instant messaging client for X
ii pidgin-blinklight 0.11.1-2 amd64 Blinks your ThinkPad's
ThinkLight upon new messages
ii pidgin-data 2.10.11-1 all multi-protocol instant
messaging client - data files
ii pidgin-dbg 2.10.11-1 amd64 Debugging symbols for
Pidgin
ii pidgin-otr 4.0.1-1 amd64 Off-the-Record Messaging
plugin for Pidgin
ii pidgin-themes 0.2-1 all Smiley themes collection
for pidgin
In the new/pristine user profile I made sure that none of the plugins were
enabled. I then put the check in the box for Pidgin-Blinklight and I got
the crash that I originally reported.

I don't know what's going on there. :/
The output on the console:
[xcb] Unknown sequence number while processing queue
[xcb] Most likely this is a multi-threaded client and XInitThreads has not
been called
[xcb] Aborting, sorry about that.
pidgin: ../../src/xcb_io.c:274: poll_for_event: Assertion
`!xcb_xlib_threads_sequence_lost' failed.
Aborted

For the heck of it I tried to make a binNMU package to ensure it's built
against the current dependencies in Debian Jessie but the crashing
persists.
