A partial list of my ports shows

opal# pkgrep kde
kde-3.2.0           The "meta-port" for KDE
kdeaddons-3.2.0     Additional plugins and scripts for some KDE 
applications
kdeadmin-3.2.0      KDE applications related to system administration

I think I would install xmbmon and watch the termperature while you are 
building. AMD used to provide fans that were insufficient for long time 
100% cpu activity. I had a 2000+ XP that ran 54+oC while running 
setiathome and buildworlds. My current 2400+ XPs run around 40-43oC 
with the factory fans doing the same thing.
