Every third party application I tested (i.e. anything but the Qt4 demos) 
crashed when run under KDE (3) with session management enabled, that is why 
it is disabled. I only investigated the issue far enough so I could pinpoint 
it to the session management support - whether it is a bug in ksmserver, 
libICE, Qt4 or the crashing Qt4 applications themselves, I cannot tell. I'd 
be glad if someone could investigate this further and if possible provide a 
generic fix workaround that could be easily applied ports-wide.

Cheers,
