I'm not sure that K3B is to blame for this. I think that stuff like this is 
covered by "binary compatibility": Existing application binaries should keep 
working. Anyway, I'm partially responsible, too, because I reviewed the patch 
to KProcess and did not really notice what was going on.

If K3B is broken, then what about those dozens or so applications that use 
KProcess to communicate with an external program like mkisofs? Going to fix 
them all?
