I think for all the users out there compiling KDE on their own the -O2 makes 
simply sense.
Instead of sed'ing configure I find it much simpler to simply set 
CFLAGS/CXXFLAGS as environment variables. The options kde adds get prepended, 
so your -Owhateveryouwant easily overrides the -O2 kde uses by default, with 
gcc.
