You should report this to the FreeBSD team, because I think importing
gtk works on most platforms. Also, gtk is not part of the Python
standard library, and since it's a very large package I doubt people
here are wanting to debug it.

Of course, if it is indeed a bug in the Python interpreter (rather than
in the FreeBSD package or the gtk package), it is fine to report it
here. :-)

I'm going to close this, since it is probably a gtk or FreeBSD problem.
Please report if this it not so.
