Okay.. I found out what was going on.  kconfigbase.h in 1.1.1 insists on
the following prototype:

 int readListEntry( const char* pKey, QStrList &list,
                     char sep = ',' ) const;

The "new" kconfigbase.h insists on:

  int readListEntry( const QString& pKey, QStrList &list,
                     char sep = ';' ) const;

Whoops!  Semi-colons and commas may look similar to us... but computers get
really confused and read in all "old" entries as one single entry instead of a
list. :-)
