I understand that it would be nice and more correct, but that we would have 
two different behaviours is still something I really don't like.
What would you think about installing a KDELibsDependencies.cmake with 
different contents ?
This could be done either by:
-postprocessing the file created from kdelibs by the distros
or by
-creating a different file in kdelibs (problem may be the different 
debug/optimized versions of the libs, but then again, this should matter only 
for windows, right ?)

This solution would have the advantage that it would give the same results 
with cmake 2.4.x and 2.6.x, which would be a big advantage.
