When I set LC_ALL to "C" everything works fine. It seems that gnome.init somehow modifies standard python way of handling literals according to the locale. That's a really Bad Thing(TM).
I would never found the reason, if it didn't cause pysqlite to return None, when I forced 'float' as a field type (with "-- types float" query). When nothing was forced it returned floats, but rounded to integers! The Worst Thing I Could Imagine(TM).
