The java bindings are crashing when using hotspot like this:

gertjan@linux:~/kde/kdebindings/kdejava/koala/test/ksystemtray> java Test
1
kdecore (KIconLoader): Theme tree: (Conectiva Crystal - SVG 0.6)
2
kdecore (KAction): KActionCollection::KActionCollection( [KSystemTray pointer 
(0x815cf08) to widget test, geometry=700x420+350+315],  ): this = 0x815d268
kdecore (KAccel): KAccel( watch = [KSystemTray pointer (0x815cf08) to widget 
test, geometry=700x420+350+315], pParent = 0x815d268, psName = 
KActionCollection-KAccel ): this = 0x815d4a0
kdecore (KAccel): KAccelActions( KAccelBase = 0x815dac0 ): this = 0x815dac4
kdecore (KAccel): KAccelBase(): this = 0x815dac0
kdecore (KAccel): KStdAction::create( 11=file_quit, 0x815d268,  )
--crash--

Is it the same as the your PertQt crash? I had a problem before with a 
dynamic_cast in the KStyle code - I changed it to another sort of cast and it 
worked. The same app/library worked in C++, but not java. It might be a good 
idea if the KStyle code checked the replies from the dynamic_casts and logged 
an error. Otherwise it's very difficult to track down.
