I doubt this is useful for KDE4 because the actual reason for this crash seems to be is due to a Qt5 behaviour change in QPointer:

Note that Qt 5 introduces a slight change in behavior when using QPointer.

    When using QPointer on a QWidget (or a subclass of QWidget), previously the QPointer would be cleared by the QWidget destructor. Now, the QPointer is cleared by the QObject destructor (since this is when QWeakPointers are cleared). Any QPointers tracking a widget will NOT be cleared before the QWidget destructor destroys the children for the widget being tracked.
