I think I know what is going on.

Do a clean rebuild of these bindings for kate application MainWindow and 
friends, *after* building the ktexteditor bindings in PyKDE4.

The reason is that the SIP tool makes heavy use of tables with indexes 
to reference things like classes. If binding module B (=kate 
application) depends on classes in module A (=ktexteditor) then B will 
need to be rebuilt if module A changes. Changing A changes the layout of 
its tables. The mapping of class names to indexes from module A is held 
in a generated C++ header file which is then used when building module B.

cheers,
