Although I agree that most bugs in KDE are upstream bugs and not
distro-specific, in my recent experience what I have seen is that KDE
is dismissing the bugs saying that the bug does not exist in KDE 4 and
that users should upgrade, which is obviously not an option for users
of CentOS 4 or 5 (or RHEL for that matter).
I support an environment with about 25 users of CentOS (4) desktops,
most of them used KDE and KMail (for historical reasons), but recently
when they start bumping at those bugs I don't even bother and
recommend that they move to GNOME and Thunderbird instead, which are
much better supported, both in CentOS/RHEL, and in their own projects.
Some might consider KDE superior, but as long as they will refuse to
support KDE 3, they are dead to me...
