After updating I get this:
$ bibtex
bibtex: Symbol `kpse_def_inst' has different size in shared object, consider
re-linking
bibtex: Need exactly one file argument.
Try `bibtex --help' for more information.
Reinstalling texlive-bibtex as you suggested fixed the issue:
$ bibtex
bibtex: Need exactly one file argument.
Try `bibtex --help' for more information.

Can't say I've seen any of these problems (except my original one), but
I did notice that after reinstall, I get various complaints about
consistency of files cached in $HOME/.texlive-2009/. Deleting the
directory seems to solve those.
