That symbol no longer exists in NM nor is it used anywhere in the
applet.  Sounds like you're running a NetworkManager binary that's not
3993 against a libnm-glib that is 3993.  Can you verify that you have
rebuilt both NM and the applet and installed them in the right prefixes?
Might be worthwhile to run a 'make clean' in the NM source tree, then
re-build it, and reinstall.
