Just tried it.
I could reproduce this problem with KDE 4.4.5 and Qt 4.6.3.
But this Patch did not fix the Problem for me.
After applying the patch I still get the "*** No Windows ***" Window.

As far as I can tell, the patch just changes the call order bit and the 
showEvent code should not be causing problems as long as this is not caused by 
a qt bug (which I doubt). 

For me the problem looks much more related to grabbing. If I 
use pinentry-qt without global grab (echo getpin | ./pinentry-qt4 -g) the 
alt+tab works afterwards.

Regards,
Andre
