Those appear to be 32bit libraries (at least the last two files
anyway), but the ones you mention below are 64bit.  Are you on
a multilib system, or looking at two different systems, or did
I just confuse you by pasting stuff from a 64bit system? :-)

Well, I'm on Slackware, so it's part of our Xfce package - we don't
split exo out into a separate package.

Hrm...  Make sure the relevant directories are listed here:
  python -c "import sys; print ':'.join(sys.path[1:])"

If they're not, I really don't know what to tell you -- I actually
don't know too much about python...  :-)
