Hmm.. Ok... I see what the problem is:

it has something to do with nfs.  my home directory is mounted over
nfs from a sparc/solaris box.  when it creates
~/.kde/share/apps/kfm/kfm_0.0 over nfs, it's a FIFO, but if I make the 
kfm directory a link to a local filesyste, it (correctly) makes a
socket... and everything works ok.  Anyone know more about why this
might be/other work-arounds besides making the tmp a link?.
