For a second I thought I could reproduce this problem with kdelibs head (I'm 
using konqueror as my main test program), but it turned out to be a problem 
with the kttsd plugin .rc file.

If the problem persists once kstars is ported to the next snapshot, I'll be 
happy to take a look for you.

Cheers,
Hamish.
