I'm building a test-update for qt4-gui with the patch from:
http://patch-tracking.debian.net/patch/series/view/qt4-x11/4.4.3-1/0254-fix-qgraphicsproxywidget-deletion-crash.diff

to see if it helps resolve the issue.  I don't know what the release
schedule is for 4.4.4...

I don't use the Kopete notification boxes in my setup, so I haven't
seen this as a problem with my general usage to date.
