Actually, as I recall now the steps I took, it's just not as simple: KDE 
doesn't seem to be high priority for the Fedora developers, so they 
don't have the KDE updated by default. I had to update my KDE from the 
kde-redhat.org repos:
kde-stable.repo file in /etc/yum.repos.d/ :
[kde-fedora-stable]
name=kde-redhat.org (fedora)
baseurl=ftp://apt.kde-redhat.org/apt/fedora/$releasever/stable

Then, even though up2date said my system was up-to-date (by default it 
only checks the "official" repos), `yum update`  found tons of KDE 
updates. One of them probably gave me this logout options. (The logout 
menu also changed, and now has an image of Konki, the dragon :-)

I hope that helps.
