Pidgin has been working for me (with the env variable workaround for MS servers), but now suddenly it fails to display a window. Debug (-d) and strace seem to indicate the program is otherwise working. When I Ctrl-C, the window appears to flicker on screen before terminating. While it is running, the window also shows up in xlsclients. I'm not using Unity (just a simple XMonad setup), so if this is indeed the same problem, it's proabably not Unity-related. Ubuntu 13.04.
