Wouldn't know -- I boot to console and use startx to start fvwm. What
about system-wide KDE files?
Alternatively, is there a script that's sourced on session start-up?
If so, you can certainly solve your problem by defining
LD_LIBRARY_PATH there. I know fvwm has an InitFunction, and I imagine
other window managers have something similar.
Googling "kde session init", I found the following thread, which might help:

Not that I'm aware of. The lines look like the output of "set -x", though.
