I had a fascinating error like this last week, an undefined symbol in a 
truetype font library.  After several hours, I tracked it down to the 
contents of my /etc/ld.so.conf

I had explicitly given the X library path in there, but NOT explicitly given 
the /lib and /usr/lib paths.  The result was that where libraries were 
duplicated, the first explicitly given path wins out.  I nailed my problem by 
adding /usr/lib at the top of my /etc/ld.so.conf and running ldconfig.  (Boy 
that felt good!)

Possibly this can be your problem?
