There haven't been significant code change in KDEPrint that would
explain the problem. Maybe this is due to some changes in other
involved components: khtml or Qt. The problem is probably an
endless-loop somewhere (don't know however if it's in kdeprint
or khtml). Could you at least provide one significant backtrace
(one with actual function calls, not "???") with gdb when konqueror
locks up?
