Bug#430915: kwin: Xorg hogs cpu after update to kde 3.5.7-1

[Stefan Bittner <sbi_@gmx.net>]

Package: kwin
Version: 4:3.5.5a.dfsg.1-6
Severity: important

After updating kde packages to 3.5.7 when I leave the box unattended (several hours) and 
return, I see Xorg hogging 100% of the cpu.
The screen is still updated (superkaramba-stuff, amarok etc), I can move the mouse, but all
window decorations ar just thick black lines.
No response to mouse klicks.
Switching to a text console works.

All I can do is kill X and restart ist.

Downgrading kwin from 4:3.5.7-1 to 4:3.5.5a.dfsg.1-6 made the issue go away.
