Details

Our kdelibs is built with --enable-fast-malloc=full, which enables a faster malloc. However, this is no longer needed, since glibc-2.3 itself has a fixed malloc -- and it may even cause instability.

See http://lists.kde.org/?l=kde-optimize&m=109569454601802&w=2

My suggestion: either remove it so that configure will itself decide what is best, or outright disable it by --enable-fast-malloc=no
This task depends upon

I second. --enable-fast-malloc=full caused my kwin to crash.
