Hm, let's see: The first time a KIOSlave is started in Konqueror, when
opening an URL, is in KRun in libkio, for non-local urls (as it is the
case of the pop protocol) .
=> Does a plain simple example application using KRun crash when using a
"bad" ioslave? (I can't test it now, that's why I'm asking :)
