The current kde4 build will create a: /var/tmp/kdecache-<user>/ksyscoca and /var/tmp/kdecache-<user>/ksyscoca4 if kde3 is left installed on the system. This is a bug. kde4 shouldn't generate a 'k'de 'sys'tem 'co'nfiguration 'ca'che for kde3 -- period. Removing kde3 does indeed solve the problem, but I notice no requirement to do so on the wiki.
