shame on me. After further investigation, I found out, that indeed QXEmbed is 
to blame, not R (see 
http://lists.kde.org/?l=kde-devel&m=116448102901184&w=2). The fact that all 
other applications, I had tried to embed, did not crash, led me to believe 
otherwise for a long time.

The patch, I suggested, probably would not do any harm, either way, but should 
not be strictly needed.

Sorry about the noise.

Regards
Thomas Friedrichsmeier
