Charset bug in KDE 3.5.x

Description

please take a look to https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=159795 . I found that bug report while i was looking for a solution of a charset issue I had on a 3.5.10-installation. Fortunatly, this bug describes exactly what happened on my machine too (somewhat like trashing the german umlauts).

While this bug referes to 3.5.9, it is also valid for 3.5.10 (which I used and had the same issue).

In the comments to that bug report, someone brought two patches (one for kdelibs and one for kdepim) - created by a developer Tobias König (tokoe). I applied them and recompiled this two packages. The problem disappeared.

I prepared two patches which are appliable as we do it all the time (-Np1). It seems to be important to first apply the kdelibs-patch and recompiled kdelibs before you do the same on kdepim.

Could someone verify this (trying to store umlauts in a imap resource and get them displayed later correctly again)? I'd vote to add this two patches to the book - what do you think?

I haven't looked at this in detail, but since I will be doing KDE, I will take it.
