KDE4: Making xdg-utils future-proof

Hi,
In about two weeks I hope to release the first stable version of xdg-utils
(1.0) [1]. It has been tested [2] with several versions of KDE 3 but it has
not been tested with KDE 4. That's because KDE 4 hasn't been released yet :-)
It would be nice if this first version of xdg-utils would be able to work out
of the box with KDE 4. Since KDE 4 is breaking compatibility in various
places that is unlikely to happen by itself. (E.g. xdg-utils uses kde-config
to detect whether KDE is installed and kde-config is called kde4-config in
KDE4.)
I would like to ask for a volunteer to do two things
1) make sure that xdg-utils 1.0 works with KDE 4
2) make sure that KDE 4 doesn't change in a way that breaks xdg-utils 1.0 :-)
Cheers,
Waldo
