FWIW, it seems to work fine here, no segfaults I could cause just 
browsing tho I didn't try sending any dbus messages with it.  ~amd64 (so 
KDE 3.5.7) here except that I've unmasked gcc-4.2.0, and as recommended, 
done the emerge --emptytree thing.  So I've got a pretty freshly rebuilt 
system, but it doesn't segfault here, even built with gcc-4.2.0.

So it can't be /entirely/ borken.  I don't use it, and as you're the 
maintainer, if you wish to kill it, I've no objections.  Just sayin' it 
/does/ still work, so you'll need a reason other than that, even if it's 
just that you're tired of it and it's not a big loss since KDE-4's coming 
up and it's unmaintained, so would appear to be on borrowed time anyway.
