kdebindings/python/krosspython/CMakeLists.txt contains for that reason since a 
while the;

# -ldl seems to be needed (on Linux at least).

target_link_libraries(krosspython ${QT_QTCORE_LIBRARY} ${QT_QTGUI_LIBRARY} 
${KDE4_KPTY_LIBS} ${KDE4_KROSSCORE_LIBS} ${PYTHON_LIBRARIES} 
${CMAKE_DL_LIBS})

so, to link against ${CMAKE_DL_LIBS} solved it for us. probably PyQt/PyKDE 
should do too to let cmake handle this?!

ah, that reminds me on a prob during KDE3 times I had. With python it was and 
still is needed to always dynload using RTLD_GLOBAL / DL_GLOBAL 
(KLibLoader::globalLibrary / QLibrary::ExportExternalSymbolsHint - see also 
http://markmail.org/message/5ob6lzjbohjfxjru).
But I was believing the python-binary (or python.exe, heh) does already so and 
only those apps who embed the link and do additional libloading need to take 
care of it.
