Arggh! I know which problem this is - it occurs because my 
KDE3.1.4 SuSE rpms are different than the rest of the world's 
for some reason. Mine have an extra arg to one method call.

alpha6 has that and the kde322 directory too.

If you're referring to stuff like KConfigSkeletonItem, there seem 
to be some problems building on at least one person's Slackware 
install, and I haven't tested it yet :( 

I'll write some test code as soon as I can.

Thanks for the patches. They'll go in the next release (probably 
towards the end of next week - I'd like to collect a few more 
bugs first).
