Hi!

I have on my hard disc a quite big change in the way 
KConfig works in KDE. Nothing of what Preston touched,
but how it looks for files. It follows now the
many-reads-one-write concept KStandardDirs introduced
more transparently. 

So you only give it the filename in a relative path
and kconfig looks itself where it's present. When it
writes, it just writes to .kde/share/config. Either
into appnamerc or into kdeglobals. I also removed the
file creation code in KApplication as it was rather
pointless to write in KApplication no matter if KConfig
will write something or not. It's KConfigBackEnds's
job to create the files if needed.

I will need some time to test it, but I want to apologize
right now as I'm sure I'll break something :)

Greetings, Stephan
