Ok, ok, this seems to be right then. As Wilco has said, it seems that it was 
introduced with QT 2.3.1. Since I saw it on one of my machine out of two, I 
had a look what was the differenced between the software on these machine. 
The machine with the problem is using 2.3.1, the one without it uses 2.3. 
Both use the same KDE code. Now, I have done some re-compiling of KDE and QT 
for testing purposes, and indeed, when I use 2.3, the problem is not there, 
but with 2.3.1, it is there. That seems to explain it finally...

Thanks for your help! - it took a while for me to figure this out ;-)
