Well it looks like kde4-config is required, I guess its a bug in the
FindKDE4 cmake. You could stick a blank kde4-config.bat in your path
and see if that works. :)

Otherwise just accept that kdelibs is a build-time dependency of
Smoke. You don't have to compile kdelibs, just get it from
windows.kde.org.
