Kwrite title bars are blank in icewm

I just upgraded Arch, making everything up to date as of two weeks ago.  All is well, except  when I run kwrite its title bars are blank.  When I'm editing foobar.cpp, foobar.hpp and grocery-list.txt,  I can't tell which is which!

I'm using icewm as my "desktop".   I rarely use the fancier capabilities of the usual big desktops such as Gnome or KDE, so I've always used plain bare-bones windows managers, but I do like certain KDE applications, including kwrite, krita and ksnapshot.  Krita and ksnapshot do show file names  and their own names in the title bars.  It's only kwrite that won't do this.   Kwrite's title bars are completely blank.  All non-KDE application seem to work fine.

Of course, "it used to work fine".  Just before the pacman -Syu two weeks ago.

Maybe this is a bug in kwrite, and I should pester the kwrite developers, but since Arch users as so savvy, excellent problem solvers, and because of the theoretical possibility that this might be some subtle Arch package related bug, or a library versioning problem, I thought I'd ask here.
