Ah, the joys of dynamic linkers...

You'll need to specify the exact version of your operating system  
(probably Linux, but maybe MacOSX or some other unix variant?), and,  
for completeness, your compiler and linker version.

Sometimes symbols in the base executable are available to all  
dynamically loaded modules, but symbols in modules that are themselves  
loaded dynamically not. This seems to be what's biting you.

Oh yes: can you try a newer version of Python? I fixed a similar error  
for Python on MacOSX at some point in the past, it could be that  
you're looking at an error has been fixed in the mean time, 2.3 is  
pretty old by now.
