This is being reported repeatedly against several python based
applications.  On my system I traced this problem back to
/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/gtk-2.0/gnome/ui.so from package
gnome-python2-2.9.4-2 by doing module imports in the interactive
python interpreter.  Try this on your system to confirm the underlying
problem is in ui.so:
bash>python
python>>>import gnome.ui

This should make the python interpreter fail just like the apps and
points to a problem with the ui.so file. I was seeing the problem but
after doing a little troubleshooting of the ui.so I am unable to
reproduce the problem.    The fact that I am unable to reproduce this
after doing a package uninstall/re-install of gnome-python2 suggest to
me its something in the system environment and not in the packaging. 
I'm suspicious of prelink or library linking as a deeper underlying
problem.. but I can't point to a smoking gun.. i can no longer create
the issue.  I doubt everyone eating rawhide at the moment sees this.
