This is a known problem with certain Debian installations.
The problem is related to a buggy version of g++ 3.3.x and libraries
that are compiled with it.

Here's a pointer into the middle of a discussion of this problem:

http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/discuss-gnuradio/2005-01/msg00062.html

Can one of the Debian users on the list please write up a short
summary of how to fix this problem?  This is definitely a FAQ.

Thanks,
Eric
