QSettings::Sync: filename is null/empty

Lately, I think: since the big testing-to-current operation, I've been getting error messages like this every time I open an application:

QSettings::Sync: filename is null/empty
QSettings::Sync: filename is null/empty
QSettings::Sync: filename is null/empty
QSettings::Sync: filename is null/empty
QSettings::Sync: filename is null/empty
QSettings::Sync: filename is null/empty

Sometimes they only show up when I open the program from a console, other times (e.g. with the KDE System Guard), a warning window pops up.

I see from the Trolltech support site (http://www.trolltech.com/developer/knowledgebase/642/) that this is caused by QSettings not being able to find the settings file, in any of the locations in the path, but it doesn't say which file it's looking for.
Can anyone help me out here? The programs work without problem, but the error message tells me something is wrong...
I don't know if it's related, but I've also had problems with making shortcut settings in KMail stay - they seem to be correctly entered in the various config/rc files, but they won't remain - sometimes not from session to session, other times not even for the duration of a single session.

if you know what package caused it file a bug report so that it can be fixed.
