I wrote too soon. Not solved! The kicker menu works now, but other
things like Alt-F2 or the taskbar thumbnails are still only showing up
as an outline... :(

strange - haven't seen that in a while. Which kde version exactly? and could 
you give the useflags you used for qt? (I hope not raster...)

Hi,

I'm using KDE 4.2.2, kde-testing and qting-edge, ~amd64 system. I will
also mention the problem (outlines with no content) happens regardless
of whether desktop effects are on or off. I remember this problem from
a long time ago (KDE 4.0 era) but can't remember why...

Here are my Qt USE flags (no raster :):

$ emerge -vp @qt-all-live-kde

These are the packages that would be merged, in order:
