Hmm. gtk_tree_view_get_rubber_banding() is a new symbol in gtk 2.10,
according to http://developer.gnome.org/doc/API/2.0/gtk/ix07.html . I
checked the source and both in current svn and in rc2, the code that
contains the call to that function is surrounded by preprocessor
statements that make sure that it won't be used when gtk 2.9 (the
development version that eventually became 2.10) or newer isn't found.

One possibility is that your libexo is for some reason compiled
against a newer gtk2 than is available on your system, so you might
want to recompile it, and make sure to get rid of any installations of
it before doing so.
