The following finished patches are now available in the osx-patches repository.

    kde/kdelibs/fixCrashInKCrash.patch - Make sure Dr Konqi runs after a crash
    kde/kde-runtime/fixBacktraceCrash.patch - Make sure a backtrace is produced
    kde/kde-runtime/raiseDrKonqi.patch - Make sure Dr Konqi's dialog is visible
    kde/kde-runtime/loginDrKonqi.patch - Always let the user report the crash

    kde/kdelibs/fixReportBug.patch - Fix Help->Report Bug... menu item

The first four fix up KCrash and Dr Konqi to help the user report a KDE
app crash in Apple OS X.  All four need to be applied together.

The last one fixes the problem with the Help->Report Bug... menu item.

Please use them as you wish.  They are based on KDE/4.13 branch, but
will probably apply correctly on KDE 4.12 through to KF 5.  Now we have
no excuses for not reporting KDE bugs… :-)

All the best, Ian W.
