kdesdk3 cannot be build with textproc/flex installed (since it picks up 
part of it instead of the flex from base). You might have gotten 
textproc/flex as a build dependency to gstreamer, which is required by 
kde4 and many gnome applications.

There are discussions on the kde-freebsd mailing list about it and at 
least one bug report that got closed, because flex should be installed 
to a different directory, which did not happen. (This is the situation 
for five month already...)

pkg_create -b flex-2.5.35
pkg_delete flex-2.5.35
portupgrade devel/kdesdk3
pkg_add flex-2.5.35.tbz

Cheers,
Jan Henrik
