Glibc upgrade causing program crashes

Had a problem when updating glibc libraries last week and wondered if
anyone could help out. The problem was at least 3 programs create
errors now when I try to load them.

GLIBC libraries:  glibc freshrpms version 2.3.4-2.fc3
(BTW i'm running the RELEASE kernel from the FC3 CD)

The programs that don't work now are the following: 

evolution, hydrogen, GNOME clock (the clock that's in your system tray
on the desktop)

errors they're throwing: 

$ evolution
evolution: error while loading shared libraries: libecal.so.6: cannot
open shared object file: No such file or directory

$ hydrogen
hydrogen: error while loading shared libraries: libsndfile.so.1:
cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

When adding the clock to the panel:
The panel encountered a problem while loading "OAFIID:GNOME_ClockApplet".
Details: Failed to resolve, or extend
'!prefs_key=/apps/panel/profiles/default/applets/applet_6/prefs;background=none:;orient=down;size=x-small;locked_down=false

Do you want to delete the applet from your configuration?
BUTTON 1) DON'T DELETE
BUTTON 2) DELETE

I'm using these repositories: 
core updates http://ayo.freshrpms.net/ 
newrpms       http://newrpms.sunsite.dk/apt/  
freshrpms      http://ayo.freshrpms.net/ 
dries             http://apt.sw.be/ 
dag               http://apt.sw.be/ 

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
