OK, I've chopped my code right down See attachment. Running this on the 
current Kubuntu Dapper shows this in the console:

sbe at dapper3:~$ python ./qdialogdoublefree.py
kbuildsycoca running...
Double QObject deletion detected.
*** glibc detected *** double free or corruption (!prev): 0x082cfa40 ***
KCrash: Application 'qdialogdoublefree.py' crashing...
sbe at dapper3:~$         

Using show() instead of exec_loop() does in fact _not_ trigger the problem.

Here is some more version info:

Package: python2.4-qt3
Architecture: i386
Version: 3.15.1-0ubuntu3

Package: python2.4-kde3
