This is a known problem. You have to either have to modify the pango and
gtk+ makefiles and build with cvs or 1.3d libtool so that all the pango,
gdk-pixbuf and input method modules have correct dependencies, or modify
python to pass the RTLD_GLOBAL flag when dlopen'ing extensions.
The second option is easier (Red Hat has a patch to do it in their python
rpms), but the first is probably the correct fix. I talked with the gtk+
maintainers at GUADEC, and they don't want to rely on the beta version of
libtool in the official packages. Hopefully libtool 1.4 will be released
soon though.
James.
