It's things like this that really make you appreciate the fact that your kde repo has a 3 on the of it :p Still working away just fine... Just guessing here, but it looks like a fsck'ed screensaver that is threaded using mprime to compute some of the graphics and kdelocker for the display and there is a race condition (likely a screwed up mutex) that has caused the whole scheme to explode.
