I might be missing something, but why would one call KJob::exec() twice on the same job? I thought thats already an error to do, much like you don't run the same qthread instance twice.

If a slot connected with the result(KJob*) signal does then e.g. call the same KJob::exec again then funny things may happen. The patch introduces a new internal signal that is called before the finished and result signals are emitted and that quits the eventloop. This way we can be sure that the finished and result signals are always emitted once the eventloop is done.
