No, the bug is still there. It only didn't happen at my last test, probably
because the uninitialized memory was at least filled with data that didn't
trigger the crash. I need it to be 0 again for further inspection.  :-/

And I'm not the only one. I read a complaint about this bug in a KDE forum.
