Maximum number of (X) clients reached, F17 KDE

I'm running Fedora 17, upgraded (through preupgrade) from 16.  The
installation is fully updated.  I use KDE, with 12 virtual desktops (though I
usually only have things open in 4 or 5 of them).  I have one panel, and the
only widgets running in the root window are the pager and a folder view that
shows only Home and Trash.  (Those are present on all the desktops.)

I've been encountering situations where I hit this error and new windows
refuse to open.  For instance, right now I have a console window with 2 tabs,
a claws-mail window (and the compose message window in which I'm writing
this), a firefox window, 2 emacs windows, and 3 pdf files open in okular.  At
this point, for instance, I can't open another file in okular, getting 
  "Maximum number of clients reachedokular: cannot connect to X server :0"

I did not have this problem with a similar workload on F16.

To run xlsclients, I have to close something; after quitting one of the
okular windows, xlsclients gives:

(Why are there all those instances of plasma-desktop?)

Any suggestions about what to do, other than just open fewer windows?

Thanks,
