Default Problem loging in to KDE 4.3 RC1

I have an issue with KDE 4.2.95. I have updated from KDE 4.2.3 (which worked perfectly) and the updated went trough.

Then KDM is starting up fine. But after I try to log in, it only starts the first steps in the animated splash screen and then stops doing anything else. After that I can restart KDM from the text console and try again ... but nothing changes.

Now, there are two observation.
1. In .xsession-errors I can see, that kbuildsycoca4 is crashing 4 times, and then obviously everything is over.
2. If I use a second user account to log in, which was almost never used before (and as such, its configs were almost pristine), I have no problems to go into KDE 4.3 RC1

So, obviously, there is something in my users environment, that stops kbuildsycoca4 working properly (but then again, I didn't find a log that would help me to narrow down the problem). Do you have any ideas, what are commonly known "potential problems" with kbuildsycoca4?

Thank you for tipps!
