Fixed! I deleted the /tmp/kde-n7dr directory and now everything seems fine.

Not obvious, though, is it? I think that the problem was that there was a
lock file present (startkdeinitlock; goodness knows why it was there) in
/tmp/kde-n7dr. It would have been a lot easier if the error message had
explained that.
