The first line definitely points to a corruption on my machine.
Furthermore, I had version 2.10.4-2 of python-gtk2 installed (in
theory). Upgraded to 2.10.4-3; -w now yields:

etc. and the applet loads standalone. And now it works properly.

I guess this bug can be closed "stupid user, corrupted /usr" now.
Sorry for the trouble.
