cannot login a new user in KDEV3.3 or V3.4

After adding a new user, either via KUser or via console commands,  the
KDE login
accepts the new user name & password, then goes blank for awhile &
returns to the KDE login
screen.  The ~/.xsession-errors file for the new user is as follows: 
==============================================================================

As you can see, KDE has problems, but does allow the old user to login &
startkde.
This problem exists for KDE V3.3.2 & V3.4.3, so I don't think it's
really a KDE problem.
I verified that I can create a new user on my Daughter's laptop, which
is also running 
gentoo, so I'm pretty sure that there's a config file somewhere with a
bogus setting, 
I just don't know where or what it is.  The new user belongs to the same
groups as the
older user, so the problem is not group-related.  I also verified that
startkde knows
the proper $PATH setting up to the point in the script where error
messages get generated
(line #166 etc).  I Briefly experimented with liberalizing the
permissions of libart_lgpl_2.so.2
and libaudiofile.so.0, but this did not fix the problem either.  Any
ideas?
