What is that file, KControl_NoDisplay.desktop, supposed to do? What differs it 
from the normal one is it has NoDisplay=true, and no category, AFAICT. This 
is the relevant Makefile.am snippet:

xdg_apps_DATA = KControl.desktop

install-data-local: KControl_NoDisplay.desktop
        $(mkinstalldirs) $(DESTDIR)$(kde_appsdir)
        $(INSTALL_DATA) $(srcdir)/KControl_NoDisplay.desktop 
$(DESTDIR)$(kde_appsdir)/KControl.desktop
        @-rm -f $(DESTDIR)$(kde_bindir)/kinfocenter
        $(mkinstalldirs) $(DESTDIR)$(kde_bindir)
        @$(LN_S) kcontrol $(DESTDIR)$(kde_bindir)/kinfocenter
        $(mkinstalldirs) $(DESTDIR)$(kde_appsdir)/System
        $(INSTALL_DATA) $(srcdir)/kinfocenter.desktop 
$(DESTDIR)$(kde_appsdir)/System/

Is this a remnant from hacking the "core" menu category, when it didn't exist?

Why have it come alive only on George's setup? ("Users, don't poke it..")
