You do not report kdebase-workspace version. I think you was using kdebase-workspace 4.4.0-3, then you upgraded to 4.4.0-4.
The -4 checks the pid file into /var/run/daemon/kdm.pid, but if you started kdm using -3 that file was in /var/run/daemon/kdm.pid.

# Find daemons NOT in the DAEMONS array. Shut these down first
if [ -d /var/run/daemons ]; then
for daemon in $(/bin/ls -1t /var/run/daemons); do
if ! in_array $daemon ${DAEMONS[@]}; then
stop_daemon $daemon
fi
done
fi

This code is in rc.shutdown, this code make a call on /etc/rc.d/kdm.pid because there is a kdm.pid file in /var/run/daemons.
