> Did you restart after applying that commit? 

Thanks for the review.

Yes I restarted.  Multiple times in fact.  That's how I ended up with 11 copies
of each of the scripts (and deleted 10 leaving one) in each of the two dirs
(plus the single copy in the old-autostart-scripts backup dir) before I finally
figured out what was going on. =:^(  If I hadn't restarted multiple times there
would have only been the one extra copy, not ten extra copies.

Thus the "each time I restart" and "after a few restarts" in the original
description. =:^)

As for the workaround, setting the dir read-only, with autostart-scripts
actually being a symlink to autostart to avoid having two dirs plus the backup
with the same content, seems to have been effective.  Further restarts haven't
produced more copies again.  =:^)

(I was afraid I was going to have to either set immutable, or worse, add a
section to my kde launcher script that deleted the autostart dir and copied it
from the backup, like I had to do with konsolerc in a konsole wrapper script
for bug #430036 because konsole protests if konsolerc is set readonly or set
immutable.  But in this case read-only seems to have had the intended effect
without further side-effects.)
