Yes, I've just commited the change to the HEAD and KDE_3_1_BRANCHs - thanks 
for the bug report! It might be too late for the KDE 3.1 release though. The 
bug would have meant that the bindings runtime thought the 
'int,int,int,QPoint' was a java signal and connected to that, rather than the 
correct C++ one. And you would have never emitted the signal in java, so 
nothing happened.

That's good news - encouraging that java bindings makes KDE programming 
easier. Then we get more programmers, and so more apps.. I can program in 
C++, but I just personally find it all a bit of a headache and 
over-complicated.
