I can't use addrcheck ATM (at least not with the valgrind installed
here) and using memcheck the valgrind output didn't tell me anythin at
all..

Anybody else with a suggestion?

BTW: I find it really strange that the slave crashes when it is "halted"
(i.e. using KDE_SLAVE_DEBUG_WAIT) in both konqueror and kdevelop but
in "normal" operation only crashes in konqueror... Anybody with an idea
why this happens?
