OK, I copied exactly how you had it.

I checked in /home/ant/download and see nothing! No log created during
the hang. The log showed "kwrapper ksmserver" after I hit
ctrl-alt-backspace.

Maybe. I never had problems weeks ago. Wouldn't Gnome use /tmp too? I
even deleted everything in it too. Here is what it looks like when I ls
-all in /:
drwxrwxrwt 29 root root 4096 2007-11-19 10:01 tmp
> connect(3, {sa_family=AF_FILE, path="/tmp/.X11-unix/X0"}, 19) = -1 ENOENT (No

I checked again and it looked the same:
drwxrwxrwt 29 root root 4096 2007-11-19 10:01 tmp
Restarting X with KDE still hangs.

Um, I don't have that parameter in that line at all! Here's my startx
copy online: http://pastebin.ca/784413

So, I tried both defaultserverargs="-nolisten tcp -br" and
defaultserverargs="-br" separately but again they hung.
A KDE developer told me to run kdebugdialog in the KDE's mailing list: I
checked ALL options (forgot to see if ksmserver was checked already or
not) and ran startkde from Gnome's terminal (did this twice in two
different X sessions to be sure):
$ startkde
