[PyQt] Crash at exit involving signal connections, ideas?

[Simon Edwards]

Hello,

I'm working some Plasma stuff and am having trouble with a crash at exit 
time. A KDialog is opened containing a tree of widgets etc. (The KDialog 
has no parent, but is given one later on.) If I set up this signal 
below, then I get a crash at exit time:

   self.connect(self.dialog, SIGNAL("applyClicked()"), self.configAccepted)

But this form here works fine:

   self.connect(self.dialog, SIGNAL("applyClicked()"), self, 
SLOT("configAccepted"))

Anyone (Phil?) got any ideas about what is happening here? I have a 
feeling it is an already known problem, but I can't place it.

The crash looks like this:

Application: Plasma Applet Viewer (plasmoidviewer), signal SIGSEGV
