I see, thank you for merging all the bugs!
I do not have any problem in keeping the bug open, I closed it in first
instace because if i can not reproduce the bug and user does not answer with
more info it is a dead end, and it does not make too much sense keep it open.
It will be closed if it works with KDE 4, like fixed in kde 4 version, but
will reman open forever in KDE 3 versions until this is removed from the
archive...
