Aha, thanks for the explanation.

Yes, yes, it was just a question. Though if it would cause trouble under 
USE_QT, then it would cause more trouble in bsd.port.mk. But the PR 
74536 should be the right hting anyway, so just forget my rambling on 
this one :)

Nah, it's no problem, I already have the patches to be commited/send to 
maintainers (adding CONFIGURE_ARGS like in kaptain). I just wanted to 
ask first whether you would prefer to do that in bsd.kde.mk.
Just from a quick look at logs from kdebase and gtk-qt-engine, it seems 
that those will need xmkmf and therefore imake build dep. I haven't come 
to those yet to take a closer look though.
