I now think I know what the problem is. The current kde4 build will create a:

/var/tmp/kdecache-<user>/ksyscoca
and
/var/tmp/kdecache-<user>/ksyscoca4

if kde3 is left installed on the system. This is a bug. kde4 shouldn't generate
a 'k'de 'sys'tem 'co'nfiguration 'ca'che for kde3 -- period. I know SuSE
handles this in some manner so there is no conflict between kde3 and kde4. Why
this is a problem in Arch Linux is a mystery to me.

Can you guys check the code and find out where it is even possible for kde4 to
generate and ksyscoca if kde3 is installed. Further, the big issue is why kde4
then uses the ksyscoca along with ksyscoca4 when loading.

Thanks.
