I managed to get it back to a working state, thanks Ethan.

Much like it. I am _not_ restarting evolution until this is fixed ;) so
here is what I get when I launch xmms, some plugins fail to load:

/usr/local/lib/libSDL-1.2.so.0: R_PPC_REL24 relocation at 0x6f6596d4 for
symbol `' out of range
/home/hadess/.xmms/Plugins/libkjofol.so: R_PPC_REL24 relocation at
0x6f46aeb8 for symbol `' out of range

I tried recompiling glib with the new glibc, and not more success. Does
anybody have an idea about this ?

Cheers
