SIGH...  I gave up on KDE 3.5.10 and installed 4.1.3 and am somewhat OK with
the new look etc; BUT each and every .kde directory got its rssservicerc file
clobbered in the transition (I haven't check all the other files yet... :(
$ ll -d .kde*
drwx------  4 pfortin pfortin 4096 2009-01-26 05:23 .kde/
drwx------  7 pfortin pfortin 4096 2009-01-26 15:55 .kde4/
drwx------  4 pfortin pfortin 4096 2009-01-26 11:13 .kde.fresh/
drwx------  4 pfortin pfortin 4096 2009-01-26 05:23 .kde.off/
drwxr-xr-x  7 pfortin pfortin 4096 2007-11-01 10:31 .kde.rotate.bug/

The last one was in use at the time of this crash and renamed (and why the 2007
date).  KDE4 was never started here until 

WHY would ANY version of KDE go snooping and changing in directories that
aren't officially known to it?
$ ll .kde*/share/config/rsss*
