I've played around with my system some more. Here's what I tried:

    1. Removed libstdc++2.9-glibc2.1 - realplayer kept working
    2. Changed REALPLAYER_HOME - realplayer stopped working
    3. Corrected REALPLAYER_HOME - realplayer started working again
    4. Unset REALPLAYER_HOME - realplayer kept working

In short, REALPLAYER_HOME was the sole cause on my system and unsetting
it completely seems to be the best fix.
