I appreciate the effort, but this is not quite what I had in mind as a solution, when entering this bug. 
I tried this yesterday evening. The svn-version I compiled  had not yet a tools menu entry, but I found a shortcut in the toolbar configuration. I selected a few pictures and activated the button, not knowing it would work on the whole collection. That this is the case is clear to me now. I am left with more than thousand pictures with twice, and in a lot of cases even three times the same information in the IPTC keywords field.
Obviously the intended purpose of this option, synchronising the IPTC metadata, is not working for the keywords field. It just adds the tags no matter what is already in there.
By the way, in the latest compile from this evening, the mentioned tools menu entry was available now. So that ommission is solved.
