Menudrake killed my KDE menu!

I figured I would finally tackle reorganising the menu structure in KDE to something that makes a bit more sense to me. I ran Menudrake from the KDE menu, saved the new settings... and nothing happened. Next I entered the menu configuration (still Menudrake, of course) via the Alt Linux Control Center. This time, when I saved, all my KDE menus disappeared! Is there a way to fix the situation without reinstalling KDE (I've put quite a bit of work into getting everything to work the way I want)? Here is the error output when I tried running update-menus from the console (as root). I found the same error text in the Russian mailing list- but I don't read any Russian, sorry.
