--- Comment #21 from Aaron J. Seigo <aseigo@kde.org> ---
the launch time benefits can probably be offset with prelinking. what can't be
is the few MB of memory per application that gets saved with a kdeinit style
launcher.

note also that the crash is happening with intel chipsets (may happen with
others, but so far we've only seen it there).

a more proper fix would probably be to not build the applications as kdeinit
launched apps but regular binaries.

that means changing kde4_add_kdeinit_executable in the CMakeLists to just
kde4_add_executable. then these workarounds in the .desktop files which trigger
the launch of a shell (another process!) can be removed.

i'd much, much rather see that approach than the workaround. in fact, i'll go
make that change right now.
