Sorry for the delay in replying. The root cause of this seems to be that
PyCUDA picks up a different version of the C++ standard library than the
version it was compiled for. (If I had to guess, it's using the previous
gcc's version instead of the one for gcc.)

The symbol itself demangles to

$ c++filt _ZNKSt5ctypeIcE13_M_widen_initEv
std::ctype<char>::_M_widen_init() const

which is specified in 22.4.1.1 of the draft C++0x standard.

A possible fix would be to run setup.py with the environment variable
CXX set to g++44, like this

$ CXX=g++44 python setup.py install

HTH,
Andreas
