Just to clarify it is an option in the oglerc file not a "./configure" option.
Since kwin doesn't support the ewmh fullscreen state it will not make any
difference in this case.
I don't remeber who it was that tested a fix that worked
(adding a sleep(1) before XMapWindow in wm_state.c),
but I could add this inside a if(wm_name == kwin).
What version of kwin do you have, I have tested with 
$ kwin --version
Qt: 3.0.5
KDE: 3.0.3-8.3 Red Hat
KWin: 0.95
and it doesn't have any problems with fullscreen, 
though if this is a timing dependent bug,
it might work because this is a rather slow machine(300Mhz celeron).

Do you know which versions of kwin have this bug?
And is there any way to know the version of kwin from looking
at XProperties on some window?
