Maybe I don't understand the issue, but it seems like it would be simpler to just have a checkbox in the preferences, or something, rather than fork the whole project.

Looks like the developers (for whatever reason) didn't want to revert the behavior, so a user that wanted the 'old' behavior forked it.

To bring this back on topic for macports, I think it would be reasonable to have the pidgin port updated to the latest version and add a port for the fork (http://sourceforge.net/projects/funpidgin/) for people who want the 'old' behavior.
