This is what it says in the README: 

"These rpms are compiled against the original base packages from the 
distribution. We do not provide newer base packages, since this would break 
other non-KDE applications. However, this leads to some missing features for 
older distributions:

* Xft (font anti aliasing) is only known to work properly with XFree 4.2.0  
SuSE 7.3 rpms have anyway X render support (compiled against the original  
XFree 4.1.0 from the distribution), but it is recommended to disable it 
(default),  to avoid segmentation faults."

So I guess you're right. I'm going to give the rpms for SuSE 7.3 a try, see if 
that works on a 7.1 (or what's left of it) as well.

* Xft (font anti aliasing) is only known to work properly with XFree 4.2.0
   SuSE 7.3 rpms have anyway X render support (compiled against the original
   XFree 4.1.0 from the distribution), but it is recommended to disable it 
(default),
   to avoid segmentation faults.
