kio_slaves never die

I have not received any feedback on this since last week.

Cheers,

It crashes in the KSocks destructor which gets called when "static 
KStaticDeleter<KSocks> med;" gets destructed by libc.

I think there is a problem with the destruction order here. Normally things 
get cleaned up from the KApplication destructor but since this is a IO slave 
we don't have a KApplication. What might happen is that the global 
KLibraryLoader gets destructed before KSocks gets destructed, that would give 
problems because the stopSocks() function still tries to unload a library.

This didn't show up in KDE 3.0 because there we just killed the io-slaves. In  
KDE 3.1 they are supposed to exit like normal applications.

Does the following patch helps? If not, you may try to see if it helps to get 
rid of this whole "med" thing from ksocks.cpp Cleaning things up on exit is 
really overrated IMO.

Cheers,
Waldo
