I've changed this to 

void KoColor::RGBtoCMYK(int R, int G, int B, int *C, int *M, int *Y, int *K)
{
    *C = 255 - R;
    *M = 255 - G;
    *Y = 255 - B;

    int min = (*C < *M) ? *C : *M;
    *K = (min < *Y) ? min : *Y;

    *C = *C - *K;
    *M = *M - *K;
    *Y = *Y - *K;
}

In the end, following Foley etc., who I should have consulted first, instead 
of googling. The difference with the previous being that I first convert to 
CMY, instead of subtracting the K from RG and B. 

Anyway, since this is a real, life koffice lib -- can I check this in? It 
seems to produce the right results in Krita.
