Another grub patch for kde-base/kdm, version 3.5.5 this time

Again, I was forced to regenerate a patch for a newly released version. This time it was kde-base/kdm-3.5.5. Many KDE users that use kde-base/kdm together with sys-boot/grub need to use the functionality of the `grub-set-default' command. The problems of the integration of the bootloader (grub) with the display manager (kdm) have been notable. Although the solution is provided in bug #63800 of KDE, it was not applied in SVN yet, and that brought me to a report in bug #153566. I regenerated the patch and committed a new revision bump to the tree. I expect upstream to handle this issue soon. If you are really interested in this patch to be applied upstream, I advise you to get into that KDE bug and ask for it. Maybe next time I won't be here to regenerate that patch ;)
