KDE 3.5.1 has a regression where systray icons are not put into the systray
correctly on login, causing icons to be stuck in the top left corner of the
screen. The issue is described in the following kde bug report.

The patch that caused this regression was a workaround to fix an xcomposite
issue and has since been reverted upstream as indicated in the following bug
report.

I have been trying it out for the past few minutes and the patch seems
perfectly fine. Although i don't know how it affects those using xcomposite.

Will take a look tomorrow and see, i think we already had a bug open for the
problem that could be solved.

Patch applied to both kwin and kdebase 3.5.1 (-r1 and -r3 respectively).
