I am also experiencing this bug with KDE 3.4.2 (on Slackware 10.2).  I've done a little digging, and the problem seems to lie in kdelibs/kdecore/ktpy.cpp, specifically KPty::login and  KPty::logout.  I'd say those two functions need rewriting to use utempter_add_record and utempter_remove_record.  I would guess that this has been broken ever since the new utempter API was introduced.

Meanwhile, I have developed a workaround.  Simply rename /usr/sbin/utempter to /usr/sbin/utempter.real and replace it with the attached script, chmod'd 0755.
