KDEDIR and QTDIR environment variables



Somehow, it appears that the environment variables KDEDIR and QTDIR are
being removed from the environment either by XEmacs or by KDE.
I can set the variables in /etc/profile, .xsession, or elsewhere, but
when I run XEmacs either from the KDE panel or from the desktop KDEDIR
and QTDIR seem to be stripped from the environment. Other environment
variables I set are present. I can run XEmacs from a terminal window and
those environment variables are there, so there is something that I
don't understand about KDE. It appears as if KDE is doing an unset on
these variables.

I'm running SuSE 8.1 with KDE 3.0.4.
