We, kdepim, very much want to continue building against kdelibs 4.0.
Which means we need to keep a copy.  I'm fine with that.

So this means we can add content into
http://techbase.kde.org/index.php?title=Policies/CMake_and_Source_Compatibility#What_changes_are_possible.3F
bullet 1. New modules can be added

Yes, new cmake modules can be added, but copies of the modules must also be retained
inside each individual KDE package (module) that uses those modules.
