I dunno whos fault this one is so I am going to start here.

I have an issue with the QT Clipboard interface as shown in the follwoing 
code:

// This works
QClipboard *foo = QApplication::clipboard();
foo->setImage( someQImage);
....
QImage myNewImage = foo->image();

// This dose not
QClipboard *foo = QApplication::clipboard();
foo->setPixmap( someQPixmap);
....
QImage myNewImage = foo->image();


Now normally this is okay, but the problem is A) how the heck do i know what 
is on the clipboard and B) KPaint crashes on startup because it tries to read 
a pixmap.  This also breaks KView and i think KPresenter, and should break 
all other applications that are getting graphics data off of the clipboard.

Currently if you try to read a pixmap off the clipboard and it contains a 
qimage the application will crash.  The error seems to be some blather about 
running out of memory and it tanks in qpixmap_X11.cpp on line 630.

I have no clue even how to address this?

Ideas?
