I'm sorry, i don't have an idea, I only can tell that afer 7 migrations from laptop to laptop, I did a fresh new install of everything and every tidbit and it worked like a charm, it was blazing fast :)
How many migrations/time machine restores have you done?

I know this is a bit of a late reply, but I just stubled upon the same issue. I found the solution at the Apple support forums.

Install the iLife '09 9.0.3 support file here, and that should fix it. Worked for me!
