You seek answers, I'm still drunk but google is my guide:
http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-gnome/2003-May/001096.html
fixed in Gnome 2.3 "I've started to use the 2.3 gnome beta, and the
issue is MUCH improved."
or:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=87779
"As explained in #81018 upgraded vte (vte-0.10.25-1.i386.rpm from
RawHide), made
a symbolic link (/usr/lib/libvte.so.2 -> /usr/lib/libvte.so.4) to make
gnome-terminal-2.0.1-5 happy and all is fine again."
God bless bugzilla.
