i cannot claim i would understand the relation with the higher-level cascading \
without reading all the code again, but at this low level, the change is logically \
correct afaict.

This happened in the following situation:
* KDEDIRS with two prefixes (let&#39;s call them global and middle)
* a kconfig file with the same name in both (e.g. a .desktop file)
* same value for Name[locale]= in both
* no override in the local directory (KDEHOME)

The Name= value in the &quot;middle&quot; desktop file would delete the
currently-loaded translated name, but didn&#39;t do so fully (it failed
to delete the one with bDefault==true, due to the line
&quot;k.bDefault = false&quot; a few lines before, which wasn&#39;t meant to
affect this). So when reading the Name[locale] in the &quot;middle&quot;
desktop file afterwards, it said &quot;ok I already have it, do nothing&quot;,
and the english name prevailed.
The complexity comes from the fact that in such a setup, every key
is present twice, once with bDefault=false and once with bDefault=true.
(and then double that, for localized and non-localized).

After making bDefault=false operate on a copy of the key, a bug was
uncovered in the if (bDefault) block that was never executed before:
it should remove the key with bDefault==true, since it already did
that for bDefault==false (the 4th argument of the KEntryKey ctor).

Anyway, there&#39;s a unittest, so even if nobody ever understands my
ramblings above, at least it won&#39;t regress again.</pre>
