KDE 3.0.0 compiled against XFree 4.2.0: kwin segfaults. Strace included.

[Denis Vlasenko]

I am drifting towards Linux built from sources, with no binary
packages from net.

I have KDE 2.2.2 built against binary distribution of
XFree 4.1.0 and it works just fine.

Then I got newer XFree (4.2.0) and built/installed it.
Everything worked under it except for OpenOffice
(it was installed from binary, can't recompile yet).

I downloaded KDE 3 and built/installed it but it segfaults
on startup. xinit output is below.

Started X with only xterm in .xinitrc
and tried to reproduce startkde step-by-step.
dcopserver started fine, kwin got killed by SIGSEGV.
I straced kwin invocation. Result is below.

Can anyone running KDE 3 in XFree 4.2.0 reproduce my steps and send
strace to me (and to the list)? Steps:
* replace startkde with xterm in your .xinitrc
* start X, you'll see a lonely terminal windows.
* do this (emulates early startkde steps):
  lnusertemp tmp
  lnusertemp socket
  dcopserver
  strace -f -o /tmp/kwin_strace.log kwin
* send that .log to me

This is a point where SIGSEGV kills kwin:

10069 getpid()                          = 10069

Does this give any hints?
