We investigated this issue a bit on IRC, and two workarounds were
discovered. Either init.d/kdm can set KDEROOTDIR to some more
sensible location (like /var/lib/kdm/). This will make kdm stop
creating files in the root users home directory, and is a more proper
fix.
Btw, this bug is fixed upstream, as kdm 4.5 now runs as a separate
kdm user, which has no $HOME and thus there are no such files
created anywhere. We hoped to push 4.5 for squeeze, but unfortunately
this is not possible anymore, so it seems we will have to work it
around.

Secondly, I'm not denying that there is an issue about kdm creating
useless files, but there is nothing critical or RC about it given
the former.
kaboom could be smarter in this case but again there is nothing RC
about it.
