Are you running trunk? I won't have access to a 4.3 system until next
week, but it could be that this is a regression introduced by dfaure's
automatic-assigning-of-debug-areas.

I could just reproduce this with kcalc, using kWarning() didn't produce
anything. It seems kcalc gets assigned an automatic id here though. Even
if I explcitly put in a static debug area and enable that it doesn't
work.

I'm moving this to kde-core-devel (please remove kwrite-devel when
replying) as thats where this belongs. I've seen this also in QTest
unit-tests, kDebug() was printed, but kWarnings() are not.
