[Mageia-dev] Anybody having high CPU by kded4 after upgrading to 4.6.90?

I'm surprised to see you writing it. After killing kded4:
1. Klipper was not reacting.
2. The keyboard layout systray icon was dead.
3. Any changes in the way the clock is displayed (hour/date format) were not applied.
4. Hibernation was completely broken (doing nothing), only logout, shutdown and restart worked.
5. Power Management profiles were not displayed and could not be editer, nor were they functional.

Other effects might have taken place, that was at first sight.

So kded4 is indeed a *vital* process of the KDE4 desktop.

Not easy to narrow it here either. 

If it's an upstream one (can't test 4.6.90 in other distro for now), then the upstream QA is non-existent.
