In fact, this bug has been fixed. Nothing is supposed to link against
libgettextlib (it has some symbols conflicting with glib2).
The decision was to remove two symbolic links from gettext-devel in F15, to
avoid lining anything in the future.

That is why we rebuilt blender (release 22). It does not link to gettext any
more, and therefore
there is no more crashes.
