Yes, it helped. Thanks for the hints!

Details for the technical interested:

The "answer" above states 
	The problem was that I linked
	2 times with the same library: -llibrary -llibrary.

With this information I did examine my link command in detail checking 
for duplication of libraries. First to see the full command I had to
	set VERBOSE=1
then I've called mingw32-make and caught the output to file > X 2>&1.
Now I cutted out the command, used search and replace for " " and added a line 
break. Sorted the file via "sort" on unix. Sorted a copy unique and "diff"ed 
them. This showed a few doubles:

 F:\kderoot-current\lib\libQtNetwork4.a
-F:\kderoot-current\lib\libQtNetwork4.a
 F:\kderoot-current\lib\libQtSvg4.a
 F:\kderoot-current\lib\libQtXml4.a
 F:\kderoot-current\lib\libstreamanalyzer.dll.a

Also I saw that very similiar libraries were linked in from a second 
directory. Those are probably more deadly than the dublicates above.
I removed these dublicates and put the command in x.bat.
Went to the korganizer subdirectory and issued it manually as "x.bat" 
-> no crash anymore. Hypothesis proven.
