I'm not relying in a gdb backport, i'm relying in distros doing their job.

I said that i don't think it makes sense to change our code because someone 
else introduced a regression. 

In your distro you can chose between:
 a) fix it in the proper place
 b) workaround it in drkonqi
 c) let it broken.

It is your duty as system integrator to make sure the systems integrate 
correctly, in my opinion KDE has enough problems making sure our own code 
works to care when others decide to break theirs.
