Unfortunately it turned out I accidentally installed from old sources. 
Once I updated the "configure shortcuts" was gone again, and further it 
started crashing as well.
I then, by hand, deleted anything rkward related on my whole system, 
installed from the new sources again (with the options above).
This time no chrashes but still no shortcuts menu.
I then added the the stable ppa "cran-version" and installed rkward v6 
over the compiled one. No shortcuts menu but crashes.
Deleted everything again, installed v6 from PPA, no shortcuts menu but 
no chrashes.
Uninstalled, removed PPA, deleted, installed v5.7. Now: shortcuts menu 
and no crashes.

So the crashes seem to be due to corruption/incompatibilites in the 
config files _somewhere_.
The menu issue could be due some change in sources in kde, perhaps. Or 
maybe I'm missing some library or ... well I don't know.
Anyway, now I have a working system again.
