Excellent!  So now we at least know what the problem is.

I don't think this can be solved universally, as KConfig and KCoreAddons can't 
depend upon each other.  My only thought would be to have KCoreAddons lookup a 
symbol at runtime, and call that to reload all cached KSharedConfigs, but I 
have no idea if that is feasible, never mind if it will work.  Failing that, 
we should update the documentation to mention the need to reload any 
KSharedConfigs after migration.

Thoughts?
