They may all help in many cases, but more or less only by accident.
PLUGIN_INSTALL_DIR is the directory where the current project will install its 
plugins to. If this is different from the place where kdelibs is installed 
(which is in some cases) it doesn't work.

KDE4_LIB_DIR is the directory where the libraries from kdelibs are installed, 
which can be different from the directory where kdebase was installed.

E.g. I 
have /opt/qt-copy, /opt/kdesupport, /opt/kdelibs, /opt/kdepimlibs, /opt/kde4 
(for most other things). It would break here. I'm sure especially slightly 
external projects like koffice or maybe also kdevelop often do it in a 
similar way.

So, we (KDE) will install these files into a place where cmake expects them 
and not hack around that.
