This is a known problem. Usually it happens because Python's build engine is 
very fragile, and does not link the .so libraries properly (i.e. no -R, and 
-R$ORIGIN/../lib is pure science fiction for those guys).

I fought with this for about a month on HP-UX. Finally had to give up all 
optimizations and use their vanilla compile, and even then it didn't quite 
work, see below.

Correct, this is a known problem as well, and it has to do with the version of 
(n)curses used, if I remember correctly.
