No, I think the file itself is indeed created as a .rpmnew at the time
RPM prints that message.
In the spec:
<A HREF="http://svnweb.mageia.org/packages/cauldron/mageia-kde4-config/current/SPECS/mageia-kde4-config.spec?revision=397256&view=markup#l117">http://svnweb.mageia.org/packages/cauldron/mageia-kde4-config/current/SPECS/mageia-kde4-config.spec?revision=397256&view=markup#l117</A>
we use the "ccp" program to merge the .rpmnew config to the current
config (i.e. merging in your customisations to the new file, such that
new comments and directives are present).
This has the effect of subsequently deleting the .rpmnew file (although
creating the kdmrc.ccpbackup file).
Thus it's doing everything correctly, even if the use of ccp can result
in the rpmnew warnings being misleading.
I suspect the .rpmsave is a relic from previous package updates a while
back.
