Here's the thing, I've had this version of k9copy and kde4.1.3 on this
system this way since 4.1.3 came out (give or take a day or two) and
/never/ seen this error before.

Keep in mind, I've had issues compiling kdepim 4.1.3 stuff so I simply
haven't updated it.  That /might/ be the problem, but I don't know.
