The "proper" fix for this bug has been stated multiple times by the bug
maintainer who duplicated your bug.  Instead of trying to integrate the patch
yourself file a bug on the Debian Bug Tracker page, refer them back to this
bug, and as such they will:

1.) Apply the patch into the Debian package, as it is affecting a stable Debian
version, and thus justifies aggravating the Debian Maintainers.
2.) Re-prioritize the stabilization of KDE 4.7.4 into the MAIN repository, as
this bug is/was rather annoying.

Either option will get the ball rolling on Debian's end, as no one there will
know until you file a bug related to this one or your original on their bug
tracker.
