We investigated this issue a bit on IRC, and two workarounds were discovered. Either init.d/kdm can set KDEROOTDIR to some more sensible location (like /var/lib/kdm/). This will make kdm stop creating files in the root users home directory, and is a more proper fix.
An alternative to avoid the config migration dialog when root log in for the first time, is to change kaboom to look for ~/.kde/share/ instead of just ~/.kde/. The files would still be created by kdm in ~root/.kde/, but the dialog would no longer show up. Not sure which option is prefered. Perhaps both should be implemented?
