It is the kernel/file systems responsibility to ensure the data is intact. If
an application crashes while writing the file, that crash should be fixed
instead.

If an application crashes because of a corrupted file, it also should be fixed
in that application. Remember that config files are editable by hand, so if you
put junk in there, the application should correctly ignore it.

I prepended the junk from that file to my kwriterc, but got no crash. If
KConfig crashes when parsing such files as added to this bug, please add the
backtrace.
