[PyKDE] crash and hang issues with pytone and eric3

[Detlev Offenbach]

Hi,

could you please send little test scripts that reproduce the described 
behavior. That way I can look at the problems. From what you are writing, I 
think, that all of the three issues describe a real problem.

Regards,
Detlev
