No, because /usr/local/lib is before /user/local/kde4/lib. That's why it's
picking up KDE3 libs out of /usr/local/lib. With
link_directories(${KDE4_LIB_DIR}), /usr/local/kde4/lib comes first, and it
works.

/usr/X11R6 is a link to /usr/local, and exists to keep compatibility.

There is no LD_LIBRARY_PATH currently set. FreeBSD does nto use ld.so.conf
anymore, but the ldconfig path is set in rc.conf, which uses:
 ldconfig_paths="/usr/lib/compat /usr/X11R6/lib /usr/local/lib
/usr/local/lib/compat/pkg"
