The scripts are being sourced in a subshell, so echo will work, but the sourced variabled are then discarded.

It should be `test -r "$file" && . "$file" || true` (lets use `true` instead of `:` for better clarity?)

This small fix will execute a no-op in such a case, so that errors will not affect startkde's progress, while still being visible in .xsession-errors.
