OK, I came back to debugging this and removed all -py27 
packages except libxml2-py27 on which other packages depend. 
Then I reinstalled spyder-x11-py27 with only the packages it 
needs.  It now works.  So there is some other -py27 package 
that is causing the segfault.  When I get a chance, I will 
install one by one and test as I go until I find it, and 
report back.  But it may be a while before I can do this...
