I run it exactly as described in the mail. The only thing performed was:

        import uno

after which it crashes. This does not happen on the same system with the 
LibO 3.4.5 installation and hasn't happened on previous installations 
either. (Going back to OpenOffice 3.2.0)

Here is a very simple example without influencing the environment:

----
[dag@moria ~]$ /opt/libreoffice3.5/program/python
Python 2.6.1 (r261:67515, Feb  1 2012, 15:06:46)

terminate called after throwing an instance of 'com::sun::star::registry::InvalidRegistryException'
Aborted (core dumped)

Doing this for LibO 3.4.5 works as expected:

It cannot be demonstrated more simple than that.
