I can confirm this. For me it happens with KDE 4.0.68, Qt 
4.4.1-snapshot-20080404, and gcc 4.2.3.

I initially thought the fault was in klauncher too, but I can start KDE4 
if I use xdm and configure my .xsession to run /opt/bin/startkde. I can 
see the klauncher segfault message in my system logs even when I start 
KDE4 from xdm. So this is either a kdm bug introduced in 4.0.68, or kdm 
reacting badly to a crashing klauncher.

I talked about this on #kde, but for all I know the ball is in our 
court. There's possibly something wrong with our build, or maybe not.

@Jucato the KDE Insider: Care to investigate? :)
