Thank you very much for the patch and the detailed explanation.

So, first I did recompiled everything and did test that the at comment #2 described bug is still present for me. Most time kwin is crashing what let's the window-decoration disappear while plasma and running apps are still there.

Then I applied the patch, recompiled and now it's not any longer kwin which crashes but the whole kde-session and what stays is a blank x.org.

I am btw on a amd64 dual-core, 2.6.24.7, nvidia and did rm the cache, KDEHOME, etc. between the tests and will try to continue testing next days (may take a bit time cause of linuxtag and other things ;) to provide some more details.

But that for sure doesn't mean, that we have here multiple reasons for the crash where the patch may fix one of them. So, would be nice if others who are able to reproduce it, could test too.
