Actually this is part of a bigger problem.  For some reason truncate (part of 
QString) and open (part of kextsocket) are used all over the place.  But if 
someone includes a system header like unistd.h or fnctl.h then we are screwed 
because all open() and truncate() are turned to open64(int) and 
truncate64(int&).  After chaseing tons of stuff in kdenetwork and pim, im 
wondering if there is a safe way to fix this in kdelibs.  If anyone includes 
kdebug.h in their code after kprocess.h, then their code will not build on 
64bit platforms.

Any ideas here?  Or should I keep plugging away module by module fixing this 
issue by #undefines and moveing include orders arround.

Thanks
