Haven't read all through this thread so, apologies in advance.
Did you compile rtmpdump with "SHARED=" ??
If not, rtmpdump will probably loading wheezy's librtmp
shared libraries. By experience, these are not compatible with
the latest source.
You may want to compile your own shared libs. The source
is in the distribution (librtmp folder).

That's no longer true for ffmpeg in wheezy. The libmp3lame encoder is
built in. I don't think ffmpeg in squeeze was ever changed, but the
ffmpeg builds available from squeeze-backports and deb-multimedia repos
also had libmp3lame built in. The other wrinkle is that the ffmpeg in
the squeeze main repo is built from an old version of the original
ffmpeg.org code, while later versions (incl. wheezy) are built from the
libav.org fork, but that doesn't affect get_iplayer (not yet, anyway).
I refer you to Google for all the foolishness surrounding that schism.
As for rtmpdump, the packaged version is based on code 18 months old,
but I don't think any changes since then would make any difference to
get_iplayer. It's easy to build, but it also shouldn't segfault just
because of keyring issues. The packaged version doesn't, anyway.

Run "echo $MATE_KEYRING_CONTROL" at a command prompt.
MATE_KEYRING_CONTROL is an enviroment variable set when your desktop
session starts.

Looking back at your original message, I have an idea about what may be
happening. I think you have a GNOME keyring daemon running in MATE
alongside the MATE equivalent and masking it. When you log out from
GNOME Classic and log in to MATE, the GNOME keyring daemon is still
running but the associated keyring-XXXXXX dir in ~/.cache disappeared
when you logged out (thus the "No such file" error), and the GNOME
keyring applications are not configured to re-initialise properly in MATE.
I suggest first removing the mate-keyring package. Then, edit the four
gnome-keyring*.desktop files in /etc/xdg/autostart so that the GNOME
keyring applications are configured to initialise properly in MATE.
Basically, that just means adding MATE to the OnlyShowIn key near the
bottom of each file. I googled up a link that shows this for a similar
issue:
http://list.waikato.ac.nz/pipermail/wlug/2012-August/012107.html
After rebooting, log in to GNOME Classic, then log in to MATE, testing
rtmpdump in each.
I don't know if there is some specific reason you might need the
mate-keyring package in MATE. The only other solutions I can think of
would entail either rebooting to switch desktops or some hack to kill
the GNOME keyring daemon when starting MATE. Those are exercises left
to the reader.
