Odd behavior, multiple menu and toolbar entries

This has been vexing me for several months. I have used KDE on my desktop machine for about two years and it has been Sid the whole time and upgraded from somewhere in the 3.4 days to 3.5.7.

Some time back I noticed that some applications would show duplicate menu entries, as though the entire menu was repeated. In other apps, or maybe the same one, a menu in the menu bar will be lost or say "No Text!" and in some cases the menu will be empty. Some apps have toolbar button entries duplicated as well. I've noticed Konqueror and KControl affected.

Also, I can't keep KOrganizer from starting. It is disabled each time, but right clicking on it shows the "Reminders Enabled" unchecked but the "Start Reminder Daemon at Login" is checked each time. Even if I uncheck the latter option and stop the daemon, it will startup on the next login.

I renamed my ~/.kde directory temporarily and that solved the KOrganizer issue, but the odd menu and toolbar issues remained. This is truly odd, unless some old config file didn't get purged in /etc and that is causing my issues.

Maybe a year back I tried purging the entirety of KDE and starting over with no change of the results. I've got this thing configured as I like it and I really don't relish the idea of starting over.

Ideas?
