I was able to successfully build KDE4 on OSX!

BUILD RECIPIE:
It's pretty simple:

<h3> 1) Get required packages from MacPorts: </h3>
    ▪    AGG
    ▪    bzip2
    ▪    giflib or libungif
    ▪    libart_lgpl
    ▪    libidn
    ▪    libjpeg
    ▪    libmng
    ▪    libpng
    ▪    libxml2
    ▪    libxslt
    ▪    libusb
    ▪    OpenEXR
    ▪    PCRE
    ▪    Strigi
    ▪    shared-mime-info
    ▪    pkgconfig
    ▪    boost
    ▪    gpgme
    ▪    dbus


<h3> 2. Setup build env </h3>

I created a dir called "kde.build" in my home dir
Put the following enviroment script there:

export PATH=/opt/qt4/bin:/opt/local/bin:$PATH
export CMAKE_INCLUDE_PATH=/opt/local/include
export CMAKE_LIBRARY_PATH=/opt/local/lib
export PKG_CONFIG_PATH="/opt/qt4/lib:/opt/local/lib"
alias cmakekde="cmake ../ -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/opt/local"

As you can , our KDE installation will be sandboxed into /opt/local.

<h3> 3. Install Qt <h3>

Source the env: source ~/kde.build/kdebuildenv.sh
cd ~/kde.build
svn co svn://anonsvn.kde.org/home/kde/trunk/qt-copy
./apply patches

Put the following in a shell script ( I call it configure-qt.sh)

#####################################################
#!/bin/sh -e

MYDIR=`dirname $0`
ME=`cd $MYDIR; pwd`

QTPATH=/Users/mchakra/kde.build/qt-copy ##REPLACE THIS WITH
YOUR_HOME_DIR/kde.build/qt-copy
#if [ -n "$1" ] && [ -x "$1" ]; then
    #QTPATH="$1"
#else
    #QTPATH="$ME/../../source.build/qt-copy"
#fi

INCLUDE_PATHS="-I `pwd`/include -I $ME/include"
if [ `grep -c -- -isystem "$QTPATH/configure"` -gt 0 ]; then
    INCLUDE_PATHS="$INCLUDE_PATHS -isystem /opt/local/include"
else
    INCLUDE_PATHS="$INCLUDE_PATHS -I /opt/local/include"
fi


$QTPATH/configure \
    -prefix /opt/qt4 \
    $INCLUDE_PATHS \
    -L `pwd`/lib \
    -L $ME/lib \
    -L /usr/lib \
    -L /opt/local/lib \
    -confirm-license \
    -dbus-linked \
    -debug-and-release \
    -exceptions \
    -fast \
    -framework \
    -no-sql-ibase \
    -no-sql-mysql \
    -no-sql-odbc \
    -no-sql-psql \
    -no-sql-sqlite2 \
    -openssl \
    -optimized-qmake \
    -pch \
    -plugin-sql-sqlite \
    -qt-gif \
    -sdk /Developer/SDKs/MacOSX10.5.sdk \
    -stl \
    -system-libjpeg \
    -system-libmng \
    -system-libpng \
    -system-libtiff \
    -system-zlib \
    "$@"
###############################
after this gets done issue a "make; sudo make install" and qt is done :)

<h3> Build KDE4 /h>

Now that all dependencies are built; we can go onto building KDE4

<b>kdelibs</b>
$ source ~/kde.build/kdebuildenv.sh
$ cd ~/kde.build
$ svn co svn://anonsvn.kde.org/home/kde/trunk/KDE/kdelibs
$ export PATH="/opt/qt4/bin:/opt/kde4/bin:/opt/kde4-deps/bin:$PATH"
$ export PKG_CONFIG_PATH="/opt/qt4/lib:/opt/local/lib"
$ cd kdelibs
$ mkdir build
$ cd build
$ cmake ../ -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/opt/kde4
$ make
$ sudo make install

<b>kdepimlibs</b> (required for KDE4)
$ source ~/kde.build/kdebuildenv.sh
$ cd ~/kde.build
$ svn co svn://anonsvn.kde.org/home/kde/trunk/KDE/kdepimlib
$ cd kdepimlib
$ mkdir build
$ cd build
$ cmake ../ -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/opt/kde4
$ make
$ sudo make install

<b>kdebase</b>
$ source ~/kde.build/kdebuildenv.sh
$ cd ~/kde.build
$ svn co svn://anonsvn.kde.org/home/kde/trunk/KDE/kdebase
$ cd kdesdk
$ mkdir build
$ cmake ../ -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/opt/kde4
$ cd umbrello
$ make
$ sudo make install


VOIA! you're done! you can now go on to build any additional modules for
KDE4 ( eg kdesdk for all the dev/ UML tools )
