Last-minute fix for kwalletd

Dear release-team,

Yesterday I received a bug report about a possible data loss in kwalletd if 
you're closing your wallet and your harddisk is completely filled up. In this 
very case your whole wallet is lost and replaced by a zero-length file.

I already fixed the bug in trunk and would like to ask for permission for it 
to go into the 4.2 branch prior to tagging. I consider it urgent because it 
might result in loss of important data (even if the possibility is not that 
high).

The bug report: http://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=181059
(also contains a link to the revision fixing it)

Thanks and regards,
Michael
