KDEDIR? You don't mean that, do you? ;-)  -lkdegames rather.

Sounds like a job for a configure.in.in define (there's no if/then/else in a Makefile ;)

Completely untested code.

if [ -d $top_srcdir/libkdegames ]; then
   LIBKDEGAMES=$(top_builddir)/libkdegames/libkdegames.la
else
   LIBKDEGAMES=-lkdegames
fi

AC_SUBST(LIBKDEGAMES)

and then use $(LIBKDEGAMES) in the Makefile.am[.in?].
