It seems I can't compile it with gcc but I can with clang33 from ports.

It finally dawned on my that the inability to compile kdelibs was since
I updated world during the week.

There are some minor changes since r264295 that seem to affect clang and
I might soon be able to see what effect that has.

kdelibs fails in a different way if libinotify is installed

  Linking CXX executable ../../bin/nepomuk-rcgen
  ../../lib/libkdecore.so.5.12.4: undefined reference to
  `inotify_add_watch'
  ../../lib/libkdecore.so.5.12.4: undefined reference to
  `inotify_rm_watch'
  ../../lib/libkdecore.so.5.12.4: undefined reference to `inotify_init'
  collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status
  *** [bin/nepomuk-rcgen] Error code 1

Yours,

Richard
