Unexpected behaviour while launching new instance of KDevelop

Version:           4.2.2 (using KDE 4.6.5) 
OS:                Linux

KDevelop locks the current session.
If I try to launch new instance of KDevelop, it displays message box saying
that KDevelop failed to lock the session.
Then gives up and shuts down.



Reproducible: Didn't try

Steps to Reproduce:
1) Launch KDevelop
2) Open a session (e.g. X)
3) Launch another instance of kdevelop (from windows manager menu, console,
does not matter), but do not use any command line switches
4) Observe message that the session X is already opened and can not be locked

Actual Results:  
See screenshot

Expected Results:  
KDevelop should check if session is already opened.
If session is opened, KDevelop should launch with new empty session.
In my opinion, that's the behaviour most users would expect.
