[orca-list] problem running at-spi-registryd on FC13 on x86_64

[Peter Rayner <prayner unimelb edu au>]

I have, as far as I know, pulled the current git master for atk,
at-spi and orca.
I have had trouble activating at-spi-registryd and have tracked the
likely cause to at-spi-registryd itself crashing.  I have recompiled
with -CFLAGS=-g and here is the gdb result:

gdb at-spi-registryd 
This GDB was configured as "x86_64-redhat-linux-gnu".
Reading symbols from /home/prayner/packages/gnome/at-spi/registryd/.libs/at-spi-registryd...done.

Now to see whether I'm actually linking against current versions of
the libraries I ran:

So the libspi and libatk are taken from the /usr/local, i.e my recent
build.  
Note that just running 
/usr/libexec/at-spi-registryd 
produces something pretty similar although it doesn't have the
debugging symbols so we don't get so much information on the
segmentation violation.
Google reveals other instances of the "you forgot to call ..." message
but I didn't see an obviously applicable solution. 
Has anyone seen or resolved this or can see where I've messed up the
installation?
thanks in advance
Peter
