The problem is the KDE session management. KDE (here 3.5.0) does not always 
wait for all applications to correctly shut down, when one logs out. This is 
somehow a known problem, I think. This way the lockfile almost always stays. 
This also produces some minor problems with Kontact (Kmail / Kaddressbook).
