Would a copy of the original (from the 32 bit former installation) home 
directory be of use? Problem was not in .kde because I tried it with the old 
one and with none--never tried to read or initial it. Maybe something in 
.config. As I said, very little was in this user's home.

The issue was present in both the 4.4.8 and the 4.4.11 versions.
