More likely that kdebase-common (which owns /etc/X11/wmsession.d/05KDE3) is
missing a call to fndSession in it's postinstall script, whereas whatever put
the equivalent file there for GNOME does call it (which will of course add
KDE3 to the appropriate places).
Oh, and no need to reboot to see changes, just restart the 'dm' service, or
restart the X server (CTRL-ALT-BKSP), or restart the display manager.
