Most packagers builds standalone packages for all of those anyway so I whats
your point. The clue with having different modules are to group programs
which makes sens to keep together, ether for dependency issues or area of
usage.
kdesdk - tools to help development, which kompare, umbrello, kcachegrind and
Cervisia does.
kdeutils - misc utility programs, like kcalk, kcharselect, kfloppy etc. And
KFileReplace fits perfect with those.
If you are looking for dependency problems, I suggest find the real ones. Like
kdesdk depending on kdepim at compiletime. (My last CVS build was some time
ago, 23/9). I think it was KBugBuster or Kbabel who wanted
libkcal/resourcecalendar.h. The compile bombed when it tried to use the 3.2
version. May be ok now, some time since I did update.
