Ok, so the concern is that other apps will have problems if they try to send 
an IPC signal to KStars while it's suspended.  This probably wouldn't occur 
often, would it?  

I guess I should try to fix it for KDE-3.5.4, but I'm not sure how else to 
pause execution of a series of DCOP functions executed in a shell script.
I have two DCOP functions that suspend the dcopClient: "waitFor(int)", which 
pauses for a specific number of seconds, and "waitForKey(QString)", which 
pauses until the specified key is pressed.

If anyone has an idea how to reimplement these, I'd be glad to hear it.

thanks,
Jason
