This may be a problem of execute permissions of dll's. See
http://www.cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2002-10/msg00616.html for more informations.

Additional you can verify if the kde dll's have execution permissions.
$ find /opt/kde3 -type f -name '*.dll' -ls

or update all execute permissions immediatly

$ find /opt/kde3 -type f -name '*.dll' | xargs chmod a+x
$ find /opt/gtk -type f -name '*.dll' | xargs chmod a+x
$ find /usr/local/lib/qt3mt/bin -type f -name '*.dll' | xargs chmod a+x

Cheers
Ralf
