Okay, I'm closer to finding the actual problem.

The kmmainwin.rc packaged with kdepim-4.2.85 has kpartgui version="414". The
one in ~/.kde has kpartgui version="410". So what happens is that KMail ignores
the older custom toolbar config in favour of the new, default one. The exact
same thing happens with other KMail toolbar files. Manually bumping the
versions in the ~/.kde files helps.

However, I see at least two problems with the current behaviour:
1) While the toolbars themselves fall back to pre-packaged defaults, in the
"Configure toolbars" dialog my toolbar config is displayed. This left me
wondering for a while.
2) Re-editing the toolbars doesn't bump the rc version, so KMail will still use
the pre-packaged file.

The toolbar dialog should at least bump the version when saving. Or it should
be consistent with what's displayed in the toolbar. Ideally, there should be
some automatic migration procedure, where the user is asked whether to restore
the default toolbar config or just bump the version number.

For now I'll just bump the version numbers myself.
