Hello, Michael
First of all, thank you for your assistance so far :)
Your response reminded me of some things I ought to share:
I never had this problem "This Seriously" before.  This is a fresh install of 
Fedora Core 3, with the same official updates applied that were available a 
few days ago (I did the reinstall this weekend)  Further, my installation of 
KDE from Branch 3.5 is completely fresh:
1. I did "rm -rf /usr/local/kde-svn/" and removed my entire KDE install.
2. Did a compleltey fresh download of all the modules that I compile from in 
Branch 3.5:
arts
extragear
kdeaddons
kdeadmin
kdeartwork
kdebase
kdeedu
kdegames
kdegraphics
kdelibs
kdemultimedia
kdenetwork
kdepim
kdesdk
kdesupport
kdetoys
kdeutils
kdewebdev
koffice
playground

I just checked, and Fedora's last gcc update is dated July 27th, well before 
my most recent re-install.

Well, I need to get ready to go to work :)
