 Eek. The two DCOPObjects have the same name, so the second hides the first.

The best way would be to merge them into the same object with all methods,

Doing it properly would require that creating the dcop interface for a kmainwindow is a
virtual method... at the moment it's     d->m_interface = new KMainWindowInterface(this);
This can't be done until KDE-4.0.

But for now we can simply use the same trick: replace the default dcop interface
with one that has all methods, using inheritance.
Please try the attached patch.

[Another solution would be to rename the dcopobjects created by getWindows,
but this might break some scripts :(
(although getWindows returns DCOPRefs, so well-written scripts should rely on
what the name is going to be.... But shell-scripts are rarely free of such hacks).]
