gconf-settings-something sets the Xft dpi, so as soon as you started random 
gtk app - say firefox - newer KDE apps will appear in different fonts than 
the one previously started. This can be argued to be a bug, but it's a given 
fact and Lubos' patch adds a configure option to make this a fixed fact. 
Nothing more.
